91黑料网 does not support PQRS 162: 鈥淗IV/AIDS: HIV RNA Control After Six Months of Potent Antiretroviral Therapy.鈥 Although RNA control is a desirable outcome of HIV treatment, assessment of it at an arbitrary interval is not necessarily a measure of high quality care. The timing of assessment of clinical outcomes should be determined by patient circumstances and may differ from the interval specified.
