Abstract
Many publications have explored the various aspects of the patients with HIV characteristics associated with quality of life. Our study aims to present data on the quality of life of HIV patients based on the combination antiretroviral treatment they are currently undergoing. This research is the result of observations at KRT Setjonegoro Regional Public Hospital, Wonosobo, Indonesia. The assessment used the Indonesian version of the WHOQOL-HIV Bref instrument. Retrieval of study data included 63 ambulatory patients with HIV taking controlled first-line antiretrovirals. To improve QoL scores, practitioners need to focus on specific interventions based on combination antiretroviral regimens.
