Özet:

A descriptive study was conducted on HIV patients who had started antiretroviral therapy (ART). This study included a sample of 321 patients selected from the cohort of HIV-infected patients followed at the Medical Center for the Follow-up of Blood Donors (CMSDS) of Abidjan (RCI), in the period from 2005 to 2012. These patients were regularly treated, according to their status, with seven (07) ARV therapeutic combinations which are AZT-3TC-EFV AZT-3TC-NVP AZT-3TC-NFV AZT-3TC-LOP/RIT DT4-3TC-EFV DT4-3TC-NVP FTC-TDF-EFV. Regular follow-ups were performed during 36 months of treatment and clinical parameters (Karnofsky Index, Body Mass Index, Brachial Perimeter) were measured every six (6) months. The evolution of these three parameters (KI, BMI and BP) is a good indicator of the effectiveness of the treatments, as they allow patients to maintain a good clinical condition.
