摘要

在抗逆转录病毒治疗(ART)期间，患者监测非常重要，以确保患者的安全，特别是在抗逆转录病毒药物的毒性方面。抗逆转录病毒治疗服务提供者需要持续监测治疗结果。治疗结果可能是治疗成功也可能是治疗失败。治疗成功包括治疗期间患者病情的改善，表现为病毒载量下降，CD4计数增加，临床无机会性感染。治疗失败可分为病毒学失败、免疫学失败和临床失败。对患者和抗逆转录病毒治疗服务提供者进行了定性和定量访谈，以了解在乌干达使用移动电话监测接受抗逆转录病毒治疗的患者的可行性。本文介绍了一种基于移动的系统设计，用于监测治疗成功和治疗失败。

Using mobile phones to monitor HIV/AIDS patients on Anti Retroviral Therapy (ART) in Uganda

Patient monitoring is very important during Anti-Retroviral Therapy (ART) administration to ensure that the patient is safe especially in regards to toxicities of ARV drugs. ART service providers need to continuously monitor treatment outcomes. Treatment out comes can either be treatment success or treatment failure. Treatment success involves improvement of the patient's condition during treatment manifested by a decrease in the viral load, increase in CD4 count and clinically no opportunistic infections. Treatment failure can either be: Virological failure, Immunological failure and Clinical failure. Both qualitative and quantitative interviews were held with patients and ART service providers to access the feasibility of using mobile phones to monitor patients on ART in Uganda. This paper, presents a mobile based system design to monitor both treatment success and treatment failure.
