[NCHHSTP] HIV Outpatient Study (HOPS)

he HIV Outpatient Study (HOPS) combines medical records data abstraction on HIV-infected adults at 8 HIV clinics in the U.S. with a brief behavioral survey for patients who agree to complete the survey annually. The 7-minute survey administered by telephone or through a web interface includes questions on HIV-positive patients' risk behaviors (including sexual, drug use, tobacco use) which can then be linked to diagnoses, treatments and laboratory findings obtained through the abstraction of medical records, in order to inform secondary HIV prevention. The HOPS allows for examining the trends in the epidemiology of chronic HIV disease in this aging U.S. cohort; the identification of interactions between HIV disease, antiretroviral therapy, and other comorbidities; the characterization of the optimal management strategies for HIV-infected patients to reduce morbidity and mortality (e.g., data on drug toxicities, effectiveness of clinical interventions); and monitoring of sexual and drug use behaviors of HIV-infected patients to inform risk-reduction programs.
