Tracking: emergency method or health vigilance in the retention of patients living with HIV/AIDS?
There were 1.7 million HIV/AIDS-related deaths worldwide. The low retention of patients in care was a hindrance to their treatment. The objective of this study was to establish the epidemiological profile of patients, to implement “tracking” and to evaluate its effectiveness. This is a descriptive a...
