TX_PVLS, an indicator to monitor viral suppression, reports the percentage of ART patients with a suppressed viral load (VL) result (<1,000 copies/ml) documented in the medical or laboratory records/laboratory information systems (LIS) within the past 12 months.

 

This indicator monitors the proportion of documented viral load results from adult and pediatric ART patients who have been on ART for at least 3 months (90 days) with a suppressed result (<1,000 copies/ml). This indicator will provide data on patients who have a viral load (VL) test in the past 12 months and the percentage who were virally suppressed at the most recent test.
