DAPCU Surat has been successful in reducing the number of pre-ART
LFU cases by strengthening the tracking system through improved coordination
among facilities, regular monitoring, supportive supervision and monthly review
meetings. All patients registered for pre-ART undergo a CD4 test every six months.
The ART centre Lab Technician maintains a ‘’due list’’ of patients who are due
for CD4 testing. This list is prepared from the CD4 laboratory register. If any
patient does not visit the ART centre to undergo CD4 test within one week of
their due date, they are followed up by phone call to ensure CD4 test is done
on the next visit. ICTC centre staff also motivate and support clients during
post-test counseling session for ART registration.
