Brief Summary: This study will develop and evaluate the efficacy of an individualized interactive computer software program delivered in conjunction with clinical care in increasing and supporting antiretroviral therapy adherence in HIV-infected individuals
Detailed Description: When antiretroviral therapy ART is taken correctly it can dramatically improve the health and well-being of HIV-infected individuals However when the treatment regimen is not followed carefully the therapy can be ineffective in managing ones HIV and also can allow for the development of strains of HIV that may be resistant to treatment Effective ART adherence interventions can help patients to avoid potentially serious individual and public health consequences of suboptimal adherence but such interventions are often expensive and too intensive for clinics to support offering over time to their patients This study will develop and evaluate the effectiveness of an individualized interactive computer-software intervention program delivered in clinical care in increasing ART adherence in HIV-infected individuals Because the intervention is a software program clinic resources required for implementation and sustaining availability over time are minimized

Participants in this 18-month study were recruited from one of 5 participating clinics that provide HIV care and randomly assigned to control an assessment only version of the software or intervention assessment and tailored intervention software arm Participants completed their assigned task in concert with their regularly scheduled HIV medical care visits but no more frequently than once a month Primary outcomes were measured at each medical visit The effect of the adherence intervention was evaluated through comparison of treatment and control arm adherence reports over time and VL
