For patients having a bone or joint infections, with or without device, optimal surgical therapy could be sometimes non-feasible, especially in the elderly population. Therefore, a medical therapy with oral prolonged suppressive antibiotic therapy (PSAT) seems to be an option to prevent recurrence and prosthesis loosening. Subcutaneous (SC) administration of injectable intravenous antibiotics as prolonged suppressive antibiotic therapy could be a convenient way when oral treatment is not available to facilitate ambulatory care, this practice being considered as routine care. The aim of this study is to evaluate tolerance and efficacy of subcutaneous administration of antibiotics for prolonged suppressive antibiotic therapy in patients having this treatment as part of their routine care.
This study is designed to identify the burden associated with HIV and its treatment, and assess their health-related quality of life (HRQoL) by measuring key HRQoL domains, including satisfaction with treatment and care, and internalised stigma (ISAT). The study will also explore data for various important subpopulations such as subjects who are virally suppressed; who we anticipate will be the majority of study subjects. The study design is an observational, cross sectional study employing subjects' own mobile phone devices for data entry.
An open label study will be performed on 80 people with HIV infection who are maintained on effective treatment with antiretroviral drugs.
