A complex cultural dynamic within the Asian and Pacific Islander (APIs) population contributes to barriers in HIV care. This qualitative narrative study investigated how awareness, resource accessibility, and cultural taboo impact HIV care in APIs in Kansas. Eleven HIV-infected API patients were interviewed. Two evaluators independently completed a qualitative themes analysis. Important themes impacting HIV care included lack of awareness, sex as a taboo topic, and misconceptions about HIV infection. These factors create a closed community regarding HIV prevention and care. Clinicians must be aware of these barriers and provide specific culturally sensitive information and care to this population.
亚太岛民（APIs）群体内部复杂的文化动态构成了艾滋病护理的障碍。这项定性叙事研究调查了意识、资源可及性和文化禁忌如何影响堪萨斯州亚太岛民的艾滋病护理。对11名感染艾滋病的亚太岛民患者进行了访谈。两名评估人员独立完成了定性主题分析。影响艾滋病护理的重要主题包括意识缺乏、性作为禁忌话题以及对艾滋病毒感染的误解。这些因素造成了一个关于艾滋病毒预防和护理的封闭社区。临床医生必须意识到这些障碍，并为该群体提供特定的、具有文化敏感性的信息和护理。
