The Caribbean continues to have high HIV prevalence globally with concurrently high mortality rates due to opportunistic Infections. This study addresses the prevalence of histoplasmosis and cryptococcosis among patients living with advanced HIV disease (AHD) in Trinidad and Tobago, focusing on the implementation of antigen-based diagnostic assays. Conducted as a cross-sectional survey across five HIV treatment sites, 199 participants with advanced HIV disease were enrolled between July 2022 and September 2023. Diagnostic testing was performed using the Clarus Histoplasma Galactomannan Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA), and the Immy CrAg LFA Cryptococcal Antigen Lateral Flow Assay on urine and blood samples, respectively. Results revealed that 14.6% of participants were found to be co-infected with either histoplasmosis or cryptococcosis, with histoplasmosis being more prevalent (10.5%) than cryptococcosis (4.0%). The study found no significant demographic differences between newly diagnosed and previously diagnosed participants. However, a lower median CD4 count was associated with a higher risk of fungal opportunistic infections. The findings underscore the critical role of systematic use of fungal antigen-based diagnostic assays among patients with AHD to improve the timely diagnosis and treatment of fungal infections among people living with HIV in resource-limited settings and to improve patient outcomes and survival.
