ABCSinHIV Trial Summary

This trial will develop and test strategies to increase the use of evidence-based interventions for heart disease among people living with HIV.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for HIV patients aged 40-79 at certain sites with a moderate risk of heart disease, who speak English or Spanish, and have texting capabilities. Clinicians treating these patients must be willing to try new strategies. Excluded are those with past heart events, vascular diseases, pregnancy, inability to consent, or involvement in another CVD trial.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the implementation of ABCS training (aspirin use, blood pressure control, cholesterol management, smoking cessation) to reduce cardiovascular risks in people living with HIV. It aims to improve the adoption of evidence-based interventions through this strategy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on implementing a training strategy rather than a medical intervention like medication or surgery, it does not directly involve side effects typically associated with clinical trials.
