ARTAS Trial Summary

This trial studied how team-based care affects HIV patients' ability to link to follow-up care and hospital readmission rates.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who are newly diagnosed with HIV, or those known to have HIV but haven't started antiretroviral therapy (ART) within the last month. It's also open to patients not virally suppressed or those without specialist care in the past 6 months. People actively on ART, virally suppressed, and under recent specialist care can't join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares a team-based approach called ARTAS for managing HIV in a hospital setting against the usual standard of care. The goal is to see if this method improves patient follow-up treatment and reduces readmissions.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on intervention methods rather than medications, side effects aren't typical as with drug trials. However, there may be indirect effects related to changes in care management that will be monitored.
