Mesures visant à renforcer l'observance pour les antirétroviraux : perceptions et expérience des PVVIH au Burkina Faso

Résumé

Introduction: Adherence to antiretroviral therapy is a major obstacle to achieving WHO target 3. In West Africa, however, there is a lack of evidence on the most feasible, acceptable and effective adherence reinforcement measures and users’ perceptions of these measures. The purpose of this article is to analyze the perceptions of PLHIV (people living with HIV) on ART reinforcement measures in Burkina Faso. Method: In Ouagadougou and Bobo-Dioulasso care centers, THILAO Research Project (ANRS 12269) enrolled PLHIV experi- encing therapeutic failure on 2nd line antiretroviral treatment, and offered to them adherence reinforcement measures. We conducted a qualitative socio-anthropological study to explore their perceptions. Data were collected through repeated indi- vidual interviews with 37 PLHIV. Results: The 31 participants who completed interviews were rela- tively satisfied with the measures to support adherence. Three measures (pill organizer, weekly phone calls by a member of the team, cellphone alarm reminders) were perceived as simple, effec- tive, discreet, adapted to both illiterate and educated people. Three other measures (home visits, involvement of a member of the family and SMS) were not highly appreciated as they expose to the disclosure of HIV+ status and /or stigmatization. Two measures (support group, frequent visits to the care center) were less selected because considered tedious. Conclusion: PLHIV chosed and used the most appropriate adher- ence measures for their profile / context. The most feasible and acceptable measures identified could be offered to PLHIV at risk of non-compliance in West African ART programs.
