Abstract

We implemented and evaluated a clinic-based routine voluntary HIV testing intervention in Nakivale Refugee Settlement in Uganda. Comparing the standard of care period (40 d) with the intervention period (168 d), the mean HIV-infected clients identified per week increased from 0.9 to 5.6, and there was no significant difference between the HIV prevalence in the 2 periods (standard of care: 3.3%; intervention: 4.5%; P > 0.5). Clinic-based routine HIV testing in a refugee settlement is effective and should be considered for implementation in refugee settlements in other high-prevalence regions in sub-Saharan Africa.

摘要

我们在乌干达的纳基瓦莱难民营实施并评估了一项基于诊所的常规自愿艾滋病毒检测干预措施。将常规护理期(40天)与干预期(168天)进行比较,每周确定的艾滋病毒感染患者平均人数从0.9人增加到5.6人,且两个时期的艾滋病毒流行率无显著差异(常规护理期:3.3%;干预期:4.5%;P>0.5)。在难民营中开展基于诊所的常规艾滋病毒检测是有效的,撒哈拉以南非洲其他高流行地区的难民营应考虑实施该检测。
