Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  1) Group 1 will consist of HIV-positive patients receiving HAART with depression (Cases). 2) Group 2 will consist of HIV-positive receiving HAART without depression (Controls).  first group will consist of HIV-positive patients receiving HAART with depression (Cases) and second group will consist of HIV-positive receiving HAART without depression (Controls). These patients ADRs related to HAART will be accessed through their files. Only one visit will be required by the patient i.e. during Questionnaire assessment and rest of the information regarding ADRs will be collected through their files . Patients identified with depression will be brought to the notice of the doctor.

Brief Summary  
                                 Evaluation of impact of depression and its association to highly active
                                    antiretroviral therapy adherence and adverse drug reactions in People 
                                                                     living with HIV

Type of Study:   A Prospective

Aim: To evaluate the impact of depression and its association to highly active antiretroviral therapy adherence and adverse drug reactions  in People living with Human Immunodeficiency virus.

Objectives: 

1.To assess the severity of depression in People living with Human
Immunodeficiency virus on highly active antiretroviral
therapy adherence .
2. To evaluate the impact of depression and its association to highly active antiretroviral
therapy adherence in people living with Human Immunodeficiency virus.
3. To assess the impact of depression and its association to  to highly active antiretroviral
therapy adherence in people living with Human Immunodeficiency virus.

Need For the Study

Worldwide, the Human Immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epidemic is one of the current health problems . In people living with Human Immunodeficiency virus (PLW-HIV), depression is the most commonly observed.Mental illness has surfaced with depression being the most common in these patients, which has markedly reduced patient adherence to HAART.  HIV and depression is intricately intertwined.Studies from developed countries, reported that depression was significantly associated with lower adherence to HAART and reduction in depressive symptoms with treatment over time was associated with improved adherence and also prevalence of depression was high and significantly associated with non-adherence to HAART. PLW-HIV, after HAART initiation have to adapt to life with lifelong HAART treatment. The difficulties associated with HAART adherence and adverse drug reactions (ADRs) associated with use of HAART can lead to treatment failure and social stigma as shown negative impact on the quality of life in PLW-HIV. The presence of depressive symptoms and its correlations to HAART adherence and adverse drug reactions among HIV- positive patients in India has not been well documented. This study attempts to fulfill the gap by evaluating the impact of depression and its association to HAART adherence and ADRs in People living with HIV in Indian population.

Sample size : 
200 Patients ( i.e. 100 patients in each group of cases and control).

Detailed description of procedure / processes :
A prospective observational study will be conducted at the medicine department of Kasturba Hospital manipal. HIV-positive patients receiving HAART will be enrolled. Written informed consent will be obtained from these patients. During the visit, patient will be given two questionnaires which include the assessment of severity of depression using validated Patient health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) 6 and The AIDS Clinical Trail Group (ACTG) adherence questionnaire 7 for medication adherence assessment. After assessment of severity of depression and medication adherence the information collected from the questionnaires will be divided into two groups. The first group will consist of HIV-positive patients receiving HAART with depression (Cases) and second group will consist of HIV-positive receiving HAART without depression (Controls). These patients ADRs related to HAART will be accessed through their files. Only one visit will be required by the patient i.e. during Questionnaire assessment and rest of the information regarding ADRs will be collected through their files . Patients identified with depression will be brought to the notice of the doctor.

The percentage of adherence from self-report will be calculated by using the following formula :
 
                                                No. of doses the patient should have taken – No .of doses missed × 100
Percentage of adherence =              No. of doses the patient Should have taken


All the relevant data will be collected from patient’s case records and will be documented in a suitably designed ‘Individual case record form’ including the implication of HAART, OIs, number of drug prescribed, including demographic details of the patients, CD4 T-cell counts.
