Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Feasibility: recruitment and retention
Feasibility will be measured by tracking the number of participants approached, enrolled, retained, observations by study team throughout study.
Recruitment day one, throughout the study to final assessment six months post baseline of the last participant.
Feasibility: patient/provider experience
Feasibility will be measured by qualitative Interviews with patients and providers. Interview questions will be used to derive personal anecdotes of the patient/provider experience pertaining to the feasibility of the study.
After completing final outcomes at the 6 month assessment (or earlier if difficulty with recruitment/retention) patients and providers will be invited to participate in an optional qualitative interview.
Acceptability; General attitudes, perception of intervention
Acceptability will be measured by qualitative Interviews with patients and providers. Interview questions will be used to derive personal anecdotes of the patient/provider general attitudes, perception of intervention.
After completing final outcomes at the 6 month assessment (or as needed if difficulty with recruitment/retention) patients and providers will be invited to participate in an optional qualitative interview.
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Impact of PATH Outcomes: measured by identification of geriatric conditions
Geriatric Conditions will be measured through chart review at baseline, 3month, and 6 month assessments to determine overall change from baseline.
Impact of PATH Outcomes: measured by addressing unmet needs.
Unmet needs will be measured through survey questions and chart review at baseline, 3month, and 6 month assessments.
Quality of life as measured by Medical Outcomes 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36)
Quality of life will be measures at baseline, 3 months and 6 months post baseline assessments.
Study Arms (2)
Usual Care
NO INTERVENTIONUsual care participants will receive HIV and aging information before their regular medical appointment.
PATH
EXPERIMENTALThe PATH group will undergo an aging assessment using the PATH toolkit before their regular medical appointment.
Interventions
For the intervention arm, participants will be sent geriatric assessment questions through the patient portal in advance of a routine HIV appointment. If the participant is unable to complete the questions in advance, they will be done with the help of a research coordinator to go through on the day of appointment. Every attempt will be made to ensure the assessment can be done in advance of the appointment, however the study team will allow for visits after the regular appointment as in which case the provider will receive results after the patient has left clinic. The provider will receive the PATH assessment responses and a discussion guide with suggested initial management steps. The provider ultimately determines with the participant when and if they will address concerns identified (that visit or future visit) based on participant priorities. The patient participant will also receive a copy of their screening results.
