Summary

This study tested a 12-session telehealth counseling program for young people aged 18-29 living with HIV. The program used text messaging and video calls to help them stay engaged in care, manage mental health, and reduce substance use. Fifty participants were enrolled to see if the approach was feasible and acceptable.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
telehealth counseling intervention
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a scalable way to help young people with HIV stay engaged in care and improve their health outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention relies on technology access and may not work for everyone.
