Therapietrouw bij HIV-behandeling en therapietrouw bevorderende interventies bij migranten met HIV in Nederland
In this dissertation, treatment adherence among non-Western European MLWH living in the Netherlands was investigated, with a particular focus on adherence to cART. This dissertation contains studies that explored different ways to measure adherence, and factors associated with adherence in MLWH. Furthermore, the feasibility and, if feasible, the possible efficacy of directly administered antiretroviral therapy, group medical appointments, screening and treatment of psychological distress, and peer support as interventions to improve treatment adherence was investigated. Further, the availability of support services (in addition to medical care) for MLWH in the Netherlands, from the perspective of HIV care providers, was explored.
