尽管美国儿科学会最近建议强烈鼓励向学龄儿童披露人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)感染情况,但医疗保健提供者在实际披露做法上存在很大差异。目前还没有完成披露的具体准则。不公开会导致各种各样的问题,包括焦虑、抑郁、恐惧症,以及被同伴支持团体和医疗营排除在外。本文回顾了现有的文献披露艾滋病毒感染的儿童,并介绍了披露过程中使用的大型,城市儿科艾滋病诊所。
Despite recent recommendations by the American Academy of Pediatrics that strongly encourage disclosure of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection to school-age children, health care providers vary widely in their actual disclosure practices. Concrete guidelines for accomplishing disclosure are not currently available. Nondisclosure can result in a variety of problems, including anxiety, depression, phobias, and exclusion from peer support groups and medical camps. This article reviews the available literature on disclosure of HIV infection to children and describes the disclosure process used in a large, urban pediatric HIV clinic.
