随着感染艾滋病毒的青年人数的增加,需要制定二级预防方案,以帮助感染艾滋病毒的青年实现三个目标:(a)增加自我保健行为、医疗依从性和与健康有关的互动;(B)减少传播行为;(c)提高他们的生活质量。本文描述了一个针对艾滋病毒感染者的干预计划。青少年与其他受感染的同龄人一起参加小团体活动,以改变他们的行为模式。干预措施旨在:(a)减少可能传播或增强艾滋病毒传播的物质使用和性行为;(B)减少物质使用对寻求和利用卫生保健、自信心和坚持健康养生法的负面影响;(c)提高生活质量,随着时间的推移保持行为变化。有必要采取针对感染艾滋病毒的青年的干预措施。各种交付战略进行了讨论的二级干预。
As the number of youth infected with HIV rises, secondary prevention programs are needed to help youth living with HIV meet three goals: (a) increase self-care behaviors, medical adherence, and health-related interactions; (b) reduce transmission acts; and (c) enhance their quality of life. This article describes an intervention program for youth living with HIV. Youth engage in small-group activities with other infected peers to modify their behavioral patterns. The intervention aims to (a) reduce substance use and sexual behaviors that may transmit or enhance transmission of the HIV virus; (b) reduce negative impacts of substance use on seeking and utilizing health care, assertiveness, and adherence to health regimens; and (c) enhance the quality of life to maintain behavior changes over time. Interventions that target youth living with HIV are warranted. A variety of delivery strategies are discussed for secondary interventions.
