Survival and Its Determinants of HIV/AIDS Patients Receiving Antiretroviral Therapy in Two National Referral Hospitals in Eritrea: A Retrospective Cohort Study
The mortality rate is relatively low. PLHIV who started ART above 45 years, bedridden and ambulatory, and those with poor adherence were more likely to have lower survival. HIV/AIDS control programs and other stakeholders are strongly recommended to strengthen community awareness of the importance of early testing, immediate initiation of ART, regular follow-up and treatment adherence.
