6 Three-stage model of care Entry Stay Exit
7 Prison Entry (< 14 days) Screening at entry, 6-monthly during stay and at exit HIV TB STIs Syphilis Nutrition Mental health Prison Exit Linkage to care
8 During Prison Stay Six-monthly mass screening ART clinic: initiation, VL monitoring, PAGs, Rx of OIs Patient support unit: adherence counselling, peer educators PEP TB active case finding, contact tracing, isolation, and Rx Nutrition programme Primary healthcare clinic (incl. mental health) & dispensary Hepatitis B vaccination
9 1 st 90: HIV testing of new prison entries, , 5.7% 180, 3.5% 369, 7.2% On ART or HIV positive at entry New HIV diagnosis in prison HIV negative 4293, 83.7% Not tested for HIV in 2016
10 Implementation of test-and-start strategy 2014 Malawi guidelines: CD4 < 500 WHO Stage 3/4, Children <5, pregnant/breastfeeding May 2016 guidelines: Test-and-start ALL HIV positive individuals eligible for immediate ART initiation, regardless of CD4 or WHO stage MSF: implemented T&S in Maula & Chichiri prisons July 2016 Rationale: Reduce transmission (Granich RM et al, Lancet, 2009) Reduce progression to advanced disease
11 2 nd 90: ART Initiation (new prison entries) ART inititiated on prison entry ART eventually initiated in prison Left prison prior to ART initiation Not on ART from prison clinic Mean Days to ART initiation 100% 90% 80% % 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% Days to ART initiation 0% q q q q q q q q1

16 Challenges Revolving door & linkage to care Sustainability Criminalisation of MSM: No condoms Delays in referrals Patient factors: Inability to disclose to family Lack of privacy / confidentiality Stress and mental illness related to incarceration Diet Living conditions Short stay remandees Voluntary testing? Vulnerable population Denial of ART in police custody Courtesy Luca Sola/MSF
17 Opportunities Captive audience Patient/prisoner support unit: Adherence counsellors Lay peer educators (prisoners) Prisoner ART groups (PAGs) Clinic proximity Courtesy Luca Sola/MSF DBS vs. whole blood for VL
18 Conclusion The three stage model of care is effective in achieving targets, prevention of HIV transmission, and reduction in mortality Test-and-treat strategy feasible in prison setting Good retention in care and viral suppression. Linkage to care on release poor. Courtesy Luca Sola/MSF This model can be replicated in similar contexts
