通过全球防治艾滋病、疟疾和结核病基金以及世界卫生组织和总统艾滋病紧急救援计划等大型方案,前所未有地提供了大量资金和支助,使资源有限的100多万人能够获得艾滋病治疗,另有数百万人能够参加护理和预防方案。尽管如此,仍然存在重大挑战,阻止艾滋病药物和护理到达更多需要的人,特别是在农村地区。高质量治疗、护理和预防计划的推出取决于有效和可靠的实验室基础设施。本文介绍了人类病毒学研究所(IHV)-马里兰州大学及其附属机构IHV-尼日利亚所使用的策略,以建立一个多方面的,综合的实验室计划,以支持PEPFAR资助的艾滋病护理治疗在尼日利亚计划的规模扩大,与疾病控制和预防中心和尼日利亚政府合作,作为一种可能的模式,以克服几个资源有限的国家面临的一个关键挑战,试图推出和扩大其艾滋病毒/艾滋病治疗,护理和预防计划。
An unprecedented influx of funds and support through large programs such as the Global Fund for AIDS, Malaria and Tuberculosis and the World Health Organization's and President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) has made it possible for more than 1 million persons in resource-limited settings to access AIDS treatment and several million more to be in care and prevention programs. Nevertheless, there remain major challenges that prevent AIDS drugs and care from reaching many more in need, especially in rural settings.The roll-out of a high-quality treatment, care, and prevention program depends on an effective and reliable laboratory infrastructure. This article presents a strategy used by the Institute of Human Virology (IHV)-University of Maryland and its affiliate IHV-Nigeria to establish a multifaceted, integrated tier laboratory program to support a PEPFAR-funded scale-up of its AIDS Care Treatment in Nigeria program, in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Nigerian government, as a possible model for overcoming a key challenge that faces several resource-limited countries trying to roll out and scale-up their HIV/AIDS treatment, care, and prevention program.
