There is dearth of data on pre-treatment mortality in ART programmes in sub-Sahara Africa. This study aims to determine pre-treatment mortality rate and predictors of pre-treatment mortality among ART-eligible adult patients in a West Africa clinic-based cohort. Methods All HIV-infected patients aged 15 years or older eligible for ART between June 2004 and September 2009 were included in the analysis. Assessment for eligibility was based on the Gambia ART guideline. Survival following ART-eligibility was determined by Kaplan-Meier estimates and predictors of pre-treatment mortality determined by Cox proportional hazard models. Result Overall 790 patients were assessed as eligible for ART based on their clinical and or immunological status among whom 510 started treatment 26 requested transfer to another health facility 136 and 118 were lost to follow-up and died respectively without starting ART. ART-eligible patients who died or were lost to follow-up were more likely to be male or to have a CD4 T-cell count 100 cells gL while patients in WHO clinical stage 3 or 4 were more likely to die without starting treatment. The overall pretreatment mortality rate was deaths per 100 person-years 95 CI - and the rate for the composite end point of death or loss to follow-up was per 100 person-years
