Abstract:
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) affects around 20–50% of people living with HIV (PLWH). Although batteries of tests are used to identify neurocognitive impairment (NCI), they are long and difficult to perform during a routine clinic visit, thus impairing the ability to diagnose HAND. Therefore, a brief yet sensitive screening tool to identify NCI is necessary. This study prospectively evaluated an abbreviated screening battery with reported 86.5%/87.1% sensitivity/specificity, identified from a planned post-hoc analysis in a prior neurocognitive study among military PLWH.
