Book excerpt: Although the AIDS epidemic has generated worldwide concern, very little attention has been paid to its impact on the increasing numbers of women who have been infected. Women with HIV disease are in many ways a unique group - their clinical symptoms can differ from those of men, and because they are the ones who bear and usually care for children, they have different psychosocial concerns and needs. This book - written by experts in the fields of law, medicine, nursing, public health, social work, ethics, and psychiatry, and enriched by personal accounts from women who have been living with the disease - is a guide to the medical and social treatment of women with HIV.

Download or read book Correlates of Receipt of Gynecologic Care in HIV infected Women Receiving Care in the United States written by Adaora N. Odunze and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While reports show that approximately 25% of HIV-infected women do not receive recommended gynecological care and that gynecological disorders are more common and severe in HIV-infected women, there has been limited research on patterns of utilization of gynecological care among this population. This cross-sectional study was conducted to explore the association between some predisposing, enabling and need variables and the receipt of gynecologic care in HIV-infected women receiving medical care in the United States using data from the 1996-1998 HIV Cost and Services Utilization Study (HCSUS). A sample of 718 HIV-infected women 18 years and older that completed the first follow-up interview in the HCSUS study were analyzed using the STATA statistical software and the svy module to account for the complex sample design. Approximately 54% of the participants were African Americans, 25% were Whites and an estimated 63% had public insurance while 22% were uninsured. Results showed that 31% of women in the study reported lack of receipt of gynecological care. In multivariate logistic regression, race/ethnicity (Blacks: OR = 1.9, 95%CI = 1.23-2.96, p=0.005; Others: OR = 2.33, 95%CI = 1.4-3.88, p=0.002), education (High school: OR 1.80, 95%CI=1.0-3.25, p=0.05), social support (5 or more friends: OR = 1.88, 95%CI = 1.12-3.18, p=0.018) and age (45+years: OR = 0.45, 95%CI = 0.27-0.76, p=0.004) were significantly associated with receipt of gynecological care. In summary, findings from this study suggest that minorities, women with at least a high school education or diploma and women with more social support were about two times more likely to receive gynecologic care and women 45 years and older were less likely to receive gynecologic care. It is therefore recommended that public health interventional programs target those groups of HIV-infected women particularly at risk for lack of receipt of gynecological care as identified in this study and incorporate factors such as social support and enhanced education tailored to reach the older and less educated women. More studies are needed to study receipt of preventive services in HIV-infected women.-- Abstract.
