Some Black/African American and Hispanic/Latino men who have sex with men (MSM) living with HIV do not take antiretroviral therapy (ART). We conducted semistructured interviews with 84 adult, Black/African American and Hispanic/Latino MSM with HIV to understand ART barriers and facilitators. We used chi-square statistics to identify factors associated with ART use ( ≤ .05), and selected illustrative quotes. Over half (51.2%) said they followed their doctor's instructions; however, only 27.4% reported consistently taking ART. Some men delayed ART until overcoming diagnosis denial or becoming very sick. ART use was facilitated by encouragement from others, treatment plans, side effect management, lab test improvements, pill-taking reminders, and convenient care facilities that provide "one-stop shop" services. Men were more likely to take ART when having providers who communicated effectively and were perceived to treat them with respect. Healthcare personnel can use our findings to strengthen services for MSM of color.
一些感染了艾滋病毒的黑人/非裔美国人和西班牙裔/拉丁裔男男性行为者(MSM)没有接受抗逆转录病毒治疗(ART)。我们对84名感染艾滋病毒的成年黑人/非裔美国人和西班牙裔/拉丁裔MSM进行了半结构化访谈,以了解ART的障碍和促进因素。我们使用卡方统计来确定与ART使用相关的因素(≤.05),并选择了有代表性的引述。超过一半(51.2%)的人表示他们遵循医生的指示;然而,只有27.4%的人报告一直坚持服用ART。一些男性推迟ART治疗,直到克服对诊断的否认或病情非常严重。他人的鼓励、治疗计划、副作用管理、实验室检测改进、服药提醒以及提供“一站式”服务的便捷护理设施都促进了ART的使用。当有能有效沟通并被认为尊重他们的医疗服务提供者时,男性更有可能接受ART治疗。医护人员可以利用我们的研究结果来加强为有色人种MSM提供的服务。
