由于儿童和青少年时期的艾滋病毒感染已从绝症演变为慢性病,为这些客户提供服务的医疗和心理社会团队面临新的挑战。虽然有报道称,为囊性纤维化、糖尿病、镰状细胞病和其他慢性病患者提供了向成人护理过渡的专门方案,但很少有公开报道称,有综合方案旨在将青少年时期感染艾滋病毒的青少年过渡到成人艾滋病毒服务。本文介绍了一个模型的过渡,从大学为基础的,联邦政府资助的青少年艾滋病毒计划,成人艾滋病毒服务,解决过渡的障碍,并提供战略和建议,以提高遵守过渡过程。儿科保健杂志。(2011)25,16-23。
As HIV infection in childhood and adolescence has evolved from a terminal to a chronic illness, new challenges are posed for both medical and psychosocial teams serving these clients. Although specialized programs for transition to adult care have been reported for persons with cystic fibrosis, diabetes mellitus, sickle cell disease, and other chronic illnesses, there are few published reports of integral programs designed to transition adolescents who were infected with HIV during the adolescent period to adult HIV services. This article describes a model of transition from a University-based, federally funded adolescent HIV program to adult HIV services, addresses barriers to transition, and provides strategies and recommendations for improving adherence to the transition process.
