该项目的目的是开发一个补充的艾滋病毒/艾滋病监测系统，以识别 那些被诊断出感染了艾滋病毒并且没有接受治疗的人。收集到的数据将用于 确定将此人群与护理联系起来时可能需要的额外资源。特定的 研究的目的是： 1.确定已确诊感染艾滋病毒但未接受治疗的人。 2.通过与病人面谈，找出接受护理的障碍。 3.确定被诊断为艾滋病毒感染但没有感染艾滋病毒的人的临床状况 接受护理，以估计当这些个人链接到 关心。 为常规艾滋病毒/艾滋病监测收集的数据将用于识别新感染的个人 被诊断出感染了艾滋病毒，但不在护理中。这些个人将被允许参与该项目，如果 他们接受了，将参加面试和抽血。 一个重要的国家和地方目标是描述被诊断为艾滋病毒携带者的特征，但不是 正在接受治疗。估计的计数和描述对于估计社区的 资源需求。此外，确定护理障碍，然后设计干预措施来克服这些障碍 障碍将允许更多的人接受护理，这将导致个人和社区的利益。 接受护理的人可以从接受机会性感染预防中受益，他们的 监测免疫状态，并建议使用抗逆转录病毒药物进行治疗。艾滋病新疗法 可能会降低病毒载量，降低传染性程度，从而减少艾滋病毒的传播。在……里面 此外，受照顾者更有可能收到持续的预防信息，这也可能减少 导致艾滋病毒在社区内传播和进一步传播的行为。

The purpose of this project is to develop a supplemental HIV/AIDS surveillance system to identify persons who have a diagnosis of HIV infection and who are not receiving care. The collected data will be used to determine the potential added resources that will be required when this population is linked to care. Specific aims of the research are: 1. To identify persons who have a diagnosis of HIV, but who are not receiving care. 2. To ascertain barriers to receiving care through patient interview. 3. To determine the clinical status of persons who have a diagnosis of HIV infection, but who are not receiving care, to estimate the added resources that would be required when these individuals are linked to care. Data collected for routine HIV/AIDS surveillancewill be used to identify individuals who have been newly diagnosed with HIV but are not in care. These individuals will be offered participation in the project and, if they accept, will participate in an interview and blood draw. An important national and local goal is to describe the characteristics of persons diagnosed with HIV but not receiving care. An estimated count and description is critically important for estimating the community's resource needs. Additionally, identifying barriers to care and then designing interventions to overcome these barriers will allow more individuals to receive care, which will result in both personal and community benefits. Persons who are in care can benefit from receiving prophylaxisfor opportunistic infections, having their immune status monitored and,recommended, being treated with antiretroviral drugs. New HIV therapies may lower viral load and reduce the degree of infectiousness, thereby reducing HIV transmission. In addition, person in care are more likely to receive ongoing prevention messages,which may also reduce behaviors that result in transmission and further spread of HIV in the community.
