Overview
Brief Summary
The question that prompted this study is the extent to which results from clinical trials can be translated into everyday practice (external validity). An observation period of about 10 years extends far beyond the duration of clinical trials. First and foremost are questions about tolerability and the efficacy of an antiretroviral combination treatment with Viramune and other antiretroviral partners. In particular, adverse events will be recorded and the therapeutic effect will be monitored via the course of viral load and improvement of the immune system, based on the CD4 cell count.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of Participants With Viral Load <50 Copies/ml and >=50 Copies/ml at Last Visit
Time Frame: Last available visit. Duration of intake of Viramune ranges from 14 to 185 months.
Change in log10 Viral Load From Baseline to Last Visit
Time Frame: Baseline and last available visit. Duration of intake of Viramune ranges from 14 to 185 months.
Baseline is defined as the last documentation before start of therapy with Viramune. The change from baseline reflects the last available visit viral load minus the baseline viral load.
Change in Absolute CD4 Lymphocytes (CD4+ Cells) From Baseline to Last Visit
Time Frame: Baseline and last available visit. Duration of intake of Viramune ranges from 14 to 185 months.
Baseline is defined as the last documentation before start of therapy with Viramune. The change from baseline reflects the last available number of CD4+ cells minus the baseline number of CD4+ cells.
Change in Absolute CD4 Lymphocytes (CD4+) Cells From Baseline to Last Visit
Time Frame: Baseline and last available visit. Duration of intake of Viramune ranges from 14 to 185 months.
Baseline is defined as the last documentation before start of therapy with Viramune. The change from baseline reflects the last available number of CD4+ cells minus the baseline number of CD4+ cells.
