药物治疗设施是向感染丙型肝炎病毒的注射吸毒者提供有针对性的预防和保健服务的重要场所。进行了一项全国性的调查,以检查是否存在差异,在药物治疗方案提供的HCV相关服务,有不同比例的注射吸毒者在他们的病人。结果表明,总体而言,药物治疗方案与注射吸毒者的比例较大,提供显着更多的HCV服务相比,注射吸毒者的比例较小的方案。然而,丙型肝炎相关护理的重要组成部分,如关于HCV的普及基础教育和咨询以及广泛的HCV抗体检测,尚未由患者人群中注射吸毒者比例很大的所有方案提供。
Drug treatment facilities are important sites for providing targeted prevention and health services to injection drug users (IDUs) who are infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV). A nationwide survey was conducted to examine whether differences exist in the HCV-related services provided by drug treatment programs that have varying proportions of IDUs among their patients. The results indicate that, overall, drug treatment programs with a greater proportion of IDUs offer significantly more HCV services as compared to programs with a smaller proportion of IDUs. However, important components of hepatitis C-related care, such as universal basic education and counseling about HCV and extensive HCV-antibody testing, are not yet being provided by all programs with a large proportion of IDUs among their patient populations.
