Correlation between CD4 counts and adherence to antiretrovirals in treatment patience at Katutura intermediate hospital, Windhoek, NamibiaTjipura, Dinah Jorokee 04 1900 (has links)
The study analysed and compared data from patients' medical and pharmacy
refill records to identify correlations between CD4 cell counts and adherence to
antiretroviral drugs at Katutura Intermediate Hospital (KIH) in Windhoek,
Namibia. The study investigated whether the pharmacy refill adherence
measurement methodology could predict immunological recovery through
increased CD4 cell counts. There was a positive but weak relationship between
adherence and CD4 cell counts. Although the pharmacy refill records could
predict immunological response it was not sensitive enough and should be used
in combination with other adherence measurement tools. / Public Health / M.A. (Public Health)
