继续接受护理是预防艾滋病毒的一项重要战略。不幸的是，监测系统的设计并不是为了记录与艾滋病毒卫生保健提供者的面对面访问，以评估护理的保留情况。相反，与艾滋病毒有关的实验室检测被用作替代措施。这项研究估计了在俄勒冈州接受艾滋病毒相关医疗保健的人中，两次面对面访问的两次艾滋病毒相关实验室检测的敏感性（90%）和特异性（28%），两次面对面访问间隔至少90天。替代品的总体准确性是好的，但稍微高估了艾滋病毒/艾滋病感染者的比例，实际上保留在照顾。
Retention in care is an important strategy for HIV prevention. Unfortunately, surveillance systems were not designed to capture face-to-face visits with HIV health care providers to assess retention in care. Instead, HIV-related laboratory tests are used as a surrogate measure. This study estimated the sensitivity (90%) and specificity (28%) of two HIV-related laboratory tests separated by at least 90 days for two face-to-face visits among people receiving HIV-related health care in Oregon. Overall accuracy of the surrogate was good but slightly overestimated the proportion of people living with HIV/AIDS actually retained in care.
