About this study

Official title: Network-Wide Assessment of Current Health Status and Behavioral Risk Factors: An Expanded Study for New Sites in ATN III

This study will collect information on health status and risk behaviors, as well as basic demographic and biomedical information for a group of HIV positive adolescents receiving care at sites newly participating in ATN III.

Read the detailed description

The proposed study is a cross sectional study intended to be conducted at each of the Adolescent Medicine Trials Units (AMTUs) newly participating in ATN III and to enroll all participating patients followed at each site. This approach will allow for the examination of the broad spectrum of youth participating in the ATN, including those newly entered into care.

Psychosocial and risk-taking behavioral data will be collected using Audio Computer-Assisted Self-Interview (ACASI) for English-speaking participants, or a paper-and-pencil Spanish-language survey with identical measures to the ACASI for Spanish-speaking participants; biomedical information will be collected through medical chart abstraction.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Collect information on for adolescents and young adults with HIV infection engaged in care at the AMTUs

    Collect information on rates of adherence to medical regimens, sexual risk behavior, substance use and mental health concerns, along with basic demographic and biomedical data for adolescents and young adults with HIV infection engaged in care at the AMTUs to better understand the extent of risk behaviors as well as to understand risk and protective factors in this population.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To better understand the complex relationships between adherence to medical regimens, sexual risk behavior, substance use and mental health concerns, and basic demographic and biomedical data in adolescents and young adults with HIV infection.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, run by University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill at 5 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

What are the possible benefits and risks?

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Collect information on for adolescents and young adults with HIV infection engaged in care at the AMTUs (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
