Immediate ART in Subjects With Opportunistic Diseases

Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the clinical response and mortality rate due to opportunistic disease in HIV-infected individuals who start immediate versus conventional antiretroviral therapy (ART). Immediate ART (iART) is defined as starting antiretroviral therapy within the first 48 hours after hospitalization. Conventional ART (cART) is defined as starting antiretroviral therapy once the opportunistic infection is under control at the discretion of the infectious disease specialist.
