Our retrospective cohort study identified treatment experienced patients, with undetectable HIV VL, who attended the HIV clinic between 01/2013 and 06/2015. We excluded patients with fewer than 2 VL measurements during the study period. VR was defined as 1 HIV VL ≥ 200 copies/mL or 2 consecutive VL ≥ 50 copies/mL. sociodemographic, clinical and treatment factors were analyzed with respect to the occurrence of VR.
