Assess and Adapt to the Impact of COVID-19 on CVD Self-Management and Prevention Care in Adults Living With HIV

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: HIV-1-infection, Hypertension

In brief

Social distancing measures put in place to combat the COVID-19 disease pandemic may increase social isolation and impact cardiovascular disease prevention behaviors among people living with HIV (PLWH). This study builds on a previously developed nurse-led intervention to improve blood pressure and cholesterol care for PLWH. The investigators will adapt the intervention to be administered virtually in order to facilitate cardiovascular prevention care within the US health care system which has sustained long-term changes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The implementation and effectiveness of the intervention will be tested in a 12-month single arm intervention study.
