Abstract

Even though the use of ART has brought a significant reduction in the mortality and morbidity of patients living with HIV/AIDS globally, still a number of patients die after the start of Antiretroviral Therapy. This study aimed at identifying influencing factors of mortality among adult HIV infected patients who are on ART in Hossana Queen Elleni Mohammad Memorial Hospital. The data for the study were obtained from Hossana Queen Elleni Mohammad Memorial Hospital Antiretroviral Therapy clinic. The HIV infected patients ≥ 15 years of age. Binary logistic regression model was applied to analyze the data so as to identify the influencing factors associated with mortality of HIV infected patients. A total of 400 adult HIV infected patients who were under ART were included in the study. Of 400 patients, 18.75% of them died. Age of the patients 40 or above (OR=1.73, 95% CI: 1.13–1.92), primary education (OR=0.29, 95% CI: 0.030–0.71), secondary or above education (OR=0.13, 95% CI: 0.03–0.16), alcohol (OR=3.35, 95% CI: 1.79– 6.27), baseline weight 50 kg or above (OR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.23–0.77), TB positive (OR=3.76, 95% CI: 2.06–6.83), and baseline CD4 200 or above (OR=0.24, 95% CI: 0.19–0.50) were significantly associated with mortality among HIV patients under Antiretroviral Therapy. Health workers need to support those patients with no or little education by continuous awareness creation of taking care of themselves and knowing what factors facilitate death. Furthermore, patients who drink alcohol need to reduce excessive drinking.
