The Effect of Initial Patient Experiences and Life Stressors on Predicting Lost to Follow-Up in Patients New to an HIV Clinic.
We conducted a prospective cohort study of 450 patients new to an HIV clinic in Houston, TX, to examine the roles of life stressors and initial care experiences in predicting being lost to follow-up in the first year of care. Patients completed a self-administered survey following their initial prov...

Patients completed a self-administered survey following their initial provider visit. In logistic regression models, patients who reported better experiences with the HIV provider at the first visit were less likely to be lost to follow-up at 6 months (aOR = 0.866, p = 0.038) and 12 months (aOR = 0.825, p = 0.008). Patients with a higher burden of stressful life events were more likely to be lost to follow-up at 6 months (aOR = 1.232, p = 0.037) and 12 months (aOR = 1.263, p = 0.029). Assessments of patient experience and life stressors at the initial visit have potential to predict patients at risk of dropping out of care. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
