Table 4.

Relationship Between Change in Clinical Status and Initial Use of Shared Electonic Medical Record in the Subsequent 3 Months.

Changes Unadjusted HR of shared medical record Usea P Adjusted HR of shared medical record Usea P
Change to higher Charlson Comorbidity Score (excluding HIV)b 1.29 0.01 1.49 0.0001
New to ART (1st time) 1.69 0.0001 1.65 0.0001
CD4+ count <200 cells per microliter 1.33 0.02 1.34 0.02
HIV RNA ≥75 copies per milliliter 1.69 0.0001 1.63 0.0001

ART indicates receipt of 1 or more antiretroviral medications; HR, hazard ratio.

a

Rate ratio/HR compares rates of initial use (number of initial users per day) relative to reference group (from Cox proportional hazards analysis stratified on site). Adjusted for age, sex, and non-HIV-related morbidity and, stratified on site. All variables in table were time-varying and updated monthly.

b

Change to higher level of monthly non-AIDS Charlson Comorbidity Index score.
