Why do we need a common definition?

• To monitor changes in rates of late presentation over time, and assess effectiveness of public health interventions

• To identify risk factors in a common way

• To permit comparisons between countries

• To correlate late presentation rates with country-specific interventions and/or policies for earlier diagnosis

Late presentation: Persons presenting for care with a CD4 count <350 cells/mL or presenting with an AIDS-defining event, regardless of the CD4 cell count Late presentation with advanced disease: Persons presenting for care with a CD4 count <200 cells/mL or presenting with an AIDS-defining event, regardless of the CD4 cell count

What can do be done to reduce numbers of late presenters?

• One third of the estimated 2.2 million HIV-positive people across the European region are unaware of their HIV status

• Approximately 50% of those diagnosed are late presenters

• Client-initiated testing strategies are not sufficient, provider-initiated evidence based testing strategies are needed

Successful interventions for earlier HIV diagnosis

• Antenatal screening

• Increase in MSM testing

• Screening in GUM clinics

• Screening in TB clinics

• Screening among IDUs

• Indicator condition guided HIV testing

Late diagnosis

“The proportion diagnosed late (CD4 count <350 cells/mm3) remained high (50%) despite a slow

and significant decline over the last decade”

Page 35: Late Presentation in HIV infection - Home – EACSociety · Late Presentation in HIV infection ... run out of options HIV +ve, ... Maternal viral load (geometric mean during pregnancy)

What is indicator condition guided HIV testing?

• An approach using certain conditions, linked with an excess risk of being HIV positive, as indication for health providers to routinely offer an HIV test1-3

• Studies suggest that routine HIV testing remains cost-effective, when the undiagnosed HIV prevalence in a specific group, is > 0.1%4

• The concept of indicator condition guided HIV testing is an approach by which health care practitioners can be encouraged to test more patients based on indicator conditions rather than risk behaviour or group3,4,5

HIDES II Study : Enrolment

• 10139 patients were enrolled; of unknown HIV status and presenting for care with one of the surveyed conditions in one of the clinics.

Targeted, high-quality HIV testing

• Expand alternatives to traditional on-site, clinical HIV antibody testing which use rapid tests and which provide testing in locations and in conditions that are convenient to clients

• Improve links and access to treatment, care and support, and make the social, legal and policy environment more supportive

• Introduce provider-initiated testing and care in prenatal care and in certain other health-care settings

• Use targeted campaigns to encourage the uptake of HIV testing

Summary

• Late presentation to HIV care (diagnosis and linkage to care) remains common in Europe

• Late presentation has serious implications for the individual patient and for transmission of HIV

• The proportion of late presenters varies across Europe and across risk groups

• Access to HIV testing should be improved

• Provider-driven HIV testing in health care settings (indicator condition guided HIV testing)
