该项目的目的是确定与艾滋病毒和康复有关的主要研究优先事项。我们进行了一项范围界定研究,包括对已发表的和灰色文献的文献回顾,然后与28名参与者进行焦点小组和访谈咨询,其中包括艾滋病毒携带者、研究人员、教育工作者、临床医生和具有艾滋病毒和康复专业知识的政策制定者。使用定性内容分析来确定与艾滋病毒和康复方面的研究优先事项有关的紧急主题。由此产生的《艾滋病毒与康复研究框架》为开展这一领域的研究提供了一个大纲。该框架包括三个重叠的研究优先事项:(A)终生感染艾滋病毒,(B)残疾,(C)康复,应通过环境和/或个人背景镜头,使用不同的方法。通过与新参与者和回归参与者的进一步协商,确定了这一框架的六个关键研究优先事项,包括:(1)残疾和阵发性残疾,(2)与艾滋病毒同时老化的健康状况,(3)艾滋病毒与大脑,(4)劳动力和收入支助,(5)获得康复的机会和有效性,以及(6)成果衡量工具的开发和评价。这些优先事项为艾滋病毒和康复研究的未来计划提供了信息,这将增加我们的知识,以加强艾滋病毒携带者的实践、规划和政策。
The purpose of this project was to identify key research priorities related to HIV and rehabilitation. We conducted a scoping study which included a literature review of published and grey literature, followed by focus group and interview consultations with 28 participants including people living with HIV, researchers, educators, clinicians, and policy makers with expertise in HIV and rehabilitation. Qualitative content analysis was used to identify emergent themes related to research priorities in HIV and rehabilitation. The resulting Framework of HIV and Rehabilitation Research provided an outline for approaching research in the field. The framework included three overlapping research priorities: (a) living with HIV across the lifespan, (b) disability, and (c) rehabilitation that should be viewed through environmental and/or personal contextual lenses, using different methodological approaches. Six key research priorities from this framework were identified through additional consultation with new and returning participants including: (1) disability and episodic disability, (2) concurrent health conditions aging with HIV, (3) HIV and the brain, (4) labour force and income support, (5) access to and effectiveness of rehabilitation, and (6) development and evaluation of outcome measurement tools. These priorities inform a future plan for HIV and rehabilitation research that will increase our knowledge to enhance practice, programming and policy for people living with HIV.
