Summary

The highest incidence of tuberculosis disease (TB) in the world is in India, accounting for 27% of all new cases globally, with approximately 86,000 among persons with HIV (PWH). Unhealthy alcohol use can worsen the health of people who have Tuberculosis (TB), HIV and people who have both TB and HIV. Behavioral interventions that 1) target alcohol use and 2) are integrated into TB and TB/HIV and HIV care may lead to better outcomes. The goal of this study is to test if a behavioral alcohol reduction intervention integrated into TB, TB/HIV and HIV treatment can reduce alcohol use and improve TB and HIV health outcomes among people with unhealthy alcohol use. The aims of the HATHI study are: Aim 1: To test if a 4 session behavioral alcohol reduction intervention, called HATHI, integrated into TB and TB/HIV and HIV Care can decrease unhealthy alcohol use among persons with TB and TB/HIV coinfection and HIV. Aim 2: To test if the HATHI intervention, integrated into TB and TB/HIV and HIV care can improve TB and HIV clinical outcomes; Aim 3: To evaluate barriers and facilitators to integrating HATHI intervention into TB and TB/HIV and HIV care, and to determine the incremental costs of delivering HATHI intervention in TB and HIV clinical settings. Investigators hypothesize that HATHI intervention will reduce alcohol use among persons with TB and TB with HIV and HIV, and that its delivery in the TB and HIV setting will be acceptable to patients and providers and feasible.
