Study Arms (2)

Long Group

Older adults individuals with longstanding HIV, stable and on antiretroviral therapy for at least 7 years

Short Group

Older adults living with HIV, on stable antiretroviral treatment for at least 1 but not more than 2 years,

Eligibility Criteria

Age45 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Potential participants will be identified through the antiretroviral clinics associated with Chikankata Hospital and Monze Mission Hospital in Zambia's Southern Province. Individuals will first be identified in the long group and will then be matched to a PLWH in the short group matching based upon gender, age and community of residents

You may qualify if:

  • For the short group, stable on ART for 1 year, but no more than 2 years.
  • For long group, on ART for 7 or more years

You may not qualify if:

  • Acute medical illness.
  • Decisional impairment precluding informed consent as noted by clinicians providing care to the patient or by the research staff team members.
  • Communication impairments-unable to hear or unable to speak.
  • Being unable to communicate in English or in the dominant language at the study site (Tonga).
