简要总结
Adults who are hospitalized in Lusaka, Zambia, and found to have advanced HIV disease will be enrolled and randomly assigned to receive the ARC intervention or standard of care. All participants will then be followed through the end of the hospitalization and for up to 1 year after discharge from hospital.
详细描述
The ARC intervention includes support from a community health worker that begins during admission and continues after discharge to address gaps in the care cascade for HIV and serious coinfections and comorbidities. ARC components were previously developed and pilot tested at hospitals in Zambia.
