Why isn exclusion criteria similar to PCP prophylaxis included in the MAC prophylaxis measure?
Exclusion criteria are included if a specific issue or event has the potential to significantly impact the data and results. Based on the small number of patients affected by MAC and the smaller subset of patients whose CD4 count rises above 50 cells/mm3 after being repeated three months later, it was determined that exclusion criteria for this situation was not warranted.
