摘要

本研究的目的是在塞内加尔实施和评估传统治疗师管理的艾滋病毒快速诊断检测和转诊系统。20名传统治疗师被招募。传统治疗师为1284个人提供了测试。没有人拒绝。在接受检测的1284人中，53人（4.1%）呈阳性结果。阳性53例，转诊53例（100%）。53例就诊患者中，38例（71.7%）就诊。在就诊的38例患者中，31例（81.6%）确诊为hiv阳性并接受了抗逆转录病毒治疗。这种方法提供了一种可接受和可行的战略，以增加该地区的艾滋病毒检测和与护理的联系。

Partnering with traditional healers to increase HIV testing in Senegal, West Africa.

The goal of this study was to implement and evaluate a traditional healer administered HIV rapid diagnostic testing and referral system in Senegal. Twenty traditional healers were enrolled. Traditional healers offered testing to 1284 individuals. There were no refusals. Of the 1284 individuals who underwent testing, 53 (4.1%) had a positive result. Of the 53 with a positive result, 53 (100%) were referred to clinic. Of the 53 referred to clinic, 38 (71.7%) presented to clinic. Of the 38 who presented to clinic, 31 (81.6%) were confirmed HIV-positive and received ART. This approach provides an acceptable and feasible strategy to increase HIV testing and linkage to care in the region.
