Towner 2 MD 1 Dept. of Research and Evaluation Kaiser Permanente Southern California 2 Infectious Disease Kaiser Los Angeles Medical Center July 27 th, 2012 Disclosure: No potential conflict of interest Impact of Depression on Retention in Care and Viral Suppression in a Large Cohort of Insured HIV-infected Patients

2 www.aids2012.org Washington D.C., USA, JULY 22-27 2012 HYPOTHESIS poor retention in HIV Care Depression less optimal viral control Depressive symptoms are prevalent in HIV patients (~50%), affect adherence to ART Bing EG, et al, Arch Gen Psychiatry. 2001; Horberg MA, et al. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr., 2008; Hartzell JD et al. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr 2007; AIM1: To examine the impact of depression on retention in HIV primary care. AIM2: To examine the impact of depression on viral suppression among patients on ART.

3 www.aids2012.org Washington D.C., USA, JULY 22-27 2012 STUDY SETTING Study Setting: Kaiser Permanente Southern California (KPSC)--3.49 million health plan members Team-based integrated HIV primary care Electronic HIV patient registry --- over 12,500 registered HIV patients in KPSC since 01/01/2000 Inclusion criteria: AIM1: HIV+ adults with at least 8 months health plan membership in 2010 AIM2: 1) on ≥ 3 ARVs for ≥ 6 months (≥ 2 refills), and 2) ≥ 1 HIV viral load test in 2010

4 www.aids2012.org Washington D.C., USA, JULY 22-27 2012 SAMPLE SIZE 6455 pts ≥ 8 months membership 183 pts missing HIV RNA measurement (4%) 4403 pts with ≥ 1 HIV RNA measurement (96%) 1869 pts not on ART ≥ 6 month (29%) 4586 pts on ART ≥ 6 month (71%) AIM 1 AIM 2

5 www.aids2012.org Washington D.C., USA, JULY 22-27 2012 MEASUREMENTS Predictor: Depressive symptoms (time-updated) Major depression; Dysthymia; Anxiety and phobic disorders; Adjustment disorder with anxiety and depression. Outcomes: AIM1: Retention in 2010 ≥2 CD4 and/or HIV-1 viral load tests at least 90 days apart AIM2: Viral suppression at the last visit in 2010 viral load <50 copies/mL

6 www.aids2012.org Washington D.C., USA, JULY 22-27 2012 STATISTICAL ANALYSES Modeling: AIM1: Poisson regression with robust error variances AIM2: Logistic regression Covariates (multivariable analyses): age, gender, race/ethnicity, mode of HIV infection, ever AIDS diagnosis, medical center of care, and retention (AIM2 only) Stratified analyses: By gender (AIM1&2), and retention (AIM2)

12 www.aids2012.org Washington D.C., USA, JULY 22-27 2012 LIMITATIONS Insured HIV patients Small sample size of female patients (n= 628) Potential misclassification Potential residual confounding Rx-antidepressant /counseling therapy Illicit substance use Adherence to ART

13 www.aids2012.org Washington D.C., USA, JULY 22-27 2012 CONCLUSION Depressive symptoms were prevalent (over 50%) Depressive symptoms were negatively associated with retention in care in primary HIV care setting Depressive symptoms may compromise viral control among patients on ART. Clinical Implication: Early and regular screening for depression in HIV primary care setting Intervention / Referral for mental health services
