HIV Clinical Trial - Pharmacotherapy Follow-up in Older HIV-infected

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the main cause of death in Spain. In HIV patients, the uncontrolled viral replication, antiretroviral therapy (ART) and coinfections contribute to develop metabolic diseases and increase the prevalence of risk factors for CVD. These patients are aging which results in a higher probability of comorbidities, increased number of medications, possibility of having a negative outcome associated with medication (NOM) and increased cardiovascular risk (CVR). Various studies have established that pharmaceutical care (PC) results in better control of cardiovascular risk factors.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of pharmaceutical care achieved through pharmacotherapy follow-up on cardiovascular risk and health related quality of life (HRQoL) of HIV patients older than 50.

Clinical Trial Description

Quasi-experimental clinical study, pre-post intervention, performed with one patient cohort.

Study will be carry out at a tertiary hospital. The population will be constituted of patients who receive care from the outpatient department of the pharmacy service in use of antiretroviral therapy.

Variables will be obtained from patients' clinical histories, from dispensing records and through interviews with patients.

Main variables:

- cardiovascular risk estimated according to Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation (SCORE) and Registre Gironí del Cor (REGICOR) equations

- HRQoL measured by the Short-Form 36-Item Health Survey (SF-36) and Medical Outcomes Study HIV Health Survey (MOS-HIV) questionnaires.

Other variables: sociodemographic, clinical, pharmacological, related to CVR, related to NOM and to the interventions.

Interventions will be performed every two months until complete 12 months of follow-up. Pharmacotherapy follow-up will be conducted according to the Dader method. The interventions will be health education for lifestyle modification, improve adherence and aimed to the resolution of NOM and drug-related problems. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
