Predicting the loss to follow-up of HIV-infected patients on ART in a rural area in South Africa using generalized gamma distributions

2021-02-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> - Long-term regular follow-up and high retention are the anticipated outcomes for the wellness and longevity of HIV/AIDS patients on antiretroviral treatment. However, these anticipated outcomes are marred by patient loss to follow-up (LTFU) which is currently exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic. This study aims to determine the prevalence and potential risk factors to LTFU among HIV/AIDS pa...
