New therapies offer hope for a cure to millions of persons living with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. HCV elimination is a global goal that will be difficult to achieve using the traditional paradigms of diagnosis and care. The current standard has evolved toward universal HCV screening and treatment, to achieve elimination goals. There are several steps between HCV diagnosis and cure with major barriers along the way. Innovative models of care can address barriers to better serve hardly reached populations and scale national efforts in the United States and abroad. Herein, we highlight innovative models of HCV care that aid in our progress toward HCV elimination.
新的治疗方法为数百万人患有丙型肝炎病毒 (HCV) 感染的人带来了治愈的希望。消除 HCV 是一个全球性目标,使用传统的诊断和护理模式很难实现。目前的标准已经朝着普遍的 HCV 筛查和治疗方向发展,以实现消除目标。从 HCV 诊断到治愈有几个步骤,其中存在许多重大障碍。创新的护理模式可以解决服务难以到达的人群的障碍,并在美国和国外扩大国家的努力。在此,我们重点介绍有助于我们朝着 HCV 消除目标前进的 HCV 护理创新模式。
