Brief Summary: Adherence to complex medication regimens is critical to successful treatment of HIV infection Unfortunately adherence to medical regimens with conventional interventions averages 50 in chronic disease We have observed that adherence barriers that were unrecognized by providers in the clinic setting have been detected during home visits It is possible that recognition and interventions to resolve adherence barriers observed during home visits may improve adherence This proposal will test the hypothesis that home-visits which identify previously unrecognized adherence barriers and provide support and education will increase medication adherence among children and youth with HIV infection and improve the patienthealth care provider relationship Specific aims of the study are 1 Determine the impact of a series of home-visits on adherence to medication regimens for HIV infected youth and children 1a Adherence to medical regimens will be assessed before and after the series of home-visits using a self-report questionnaire and Microelectronic Monitoring System MEMS or in-home pill count 1b For each of these measures a percentage of adherence will be calculated and compared from a baseline to after the final home visit and after the six month follow up period 2 Assess the changes in patient satisfaction from baseline to after the home-visits using a questionnaire completed by the patientfamily 3 Incorporate a pilot study to assess the changes in the providers knowledge of the patients family characteristics and home circumstances relevant to adherence following the home visits
