@iphasa_africa Every HIV program manager/officer implementer should be equipped with knowledge and skills in implementation science. The discipline teaches us how to identify program gaps and evidence-based interventions to address the gaps, and also provides us with tools to use. #ISR
@iphasa_africa The process of transitioning adolescents and young people to the adult HIV clinic remains a challenge in most of our programs. We need innovative strategies on how to do this in a sustainable and efficient way, for better outcomes of our clients, more so, in this era of DSD.
Study: Virological failure following enhanced adherence counseling among children and adolescents on dolutegravir-based versus other regimens (Cameroon): Children and Adolescents on DTG based regimens continue to have more viral suppression compared to other drugs.
Dr. Boniface Oriokot: Using the Operation Triple Zero (OTZ) model to improve retention and viral suppression of Adolescents living with HIV. Barriers at individual, health facility and family/community level need to be creatively addressed to ensure better treatment outcomes.
The ATTACH study is an intervention that gives health workers a tool that helps them support children and their caregivers to be ready for transitioning to the adult clinic and disclosure support- Dr. Irene Njuguna #IPHASA2023
