Popis:	Introduction: HIV resistance to antiretroviral is currently a global concern, and requires increased surveillance in a context of widespread ARV treatment. Objective: To evaluate early warning indicators of HIV resistance to ARVs in the Hospital of Tivaouane (Senegal) where viral load was not routinely available. Methods: This is a cross-sectional retrospective study from 2008-2016. The etraction tool (May 2010 version) was used to analyze the EWI. Results: We collected 360 HIV positive patients followed on average for 3.57 years ± 3.02. 2009, 2010 and 2012 recorded 100% ARV prescribing rates. Throughout the study period, the percentage of patients lost to follow-up during the first 12 months of treatment was less than 20%. Virtually, all patients were still under primary ARVT over 12-month treatment. All patients (100%) withdrew their ARV drugs on time. No stock storage regarding various classes of ARVs was noted during the study period. Conclusion: At the end of this study we recommend to maintain regular follow-up of EWI, and combine it with the achievement of viral load.
