The paper argues that,oriented by OAC mode of "taking community-and home-based care as the main body and institution-based care as supplement," China should build an OAC facility system and planning thoughts that take "continuum of care" as concept and long-term care system as core.Taking Zhejiang Province and Hangzhou City as examples,the paper conducts the optimization research on current OAC facilities planning in terms of hierarchical system,scale,and differentiation,so as to formulate more systematic and operable planning standards for OAC facilities.展开更多

In last decade in Delhi (April 2004 to March 2014), overall 24% HIV-positive patients were lost-to-follow-up (LTFU) at step-1 (testing to enrolment into HIV-care), 7.8% at step-2 (enrolment to ART eligibility), 23.7% at step-3 (eligibility to initiation of ART) and 16.6% at step-4 (initiation to lifelong ART) of retention cascade. About 2/3rd losses at step-4 were within 1st year and 80% within 2 years. The retention of the patients in pre-ART care was 3 times lower than those initiated ART. Only 27.4% patients were in active pre-ART care during 2013. The intensified LTFU tracking (ILT) undertaken during November, 2013 through March, 2014 was not successful in tracking 97% pre-ART LTFU clients due to incomplete addresses/or migration since address proof of patients on enrolment into HIV-care was not mandatory prior to 2009. Amongst patients tracked, 1.5% were alive, 0.24% had disengaged from care while 1.2% had died. After ILT overall “On ART” and “Pre-ART” LTFU rate in the last decade was 15.5% and 45.2%, respectively. The retention cascade of last year from April 2013 to March 2014 showed improvement through strategies adopted in Third Phase of National AIDS Control Programme (NACP-III;2007-2013), and “On ART” and “Pre-ART” LTFU rates declined to 9.4% and 7.4%, respectively. However, desired at least 90% retention at various steps of the cascade could not be achieved. National Policy of delivering ART services through limited number of standalone ART centers in India, despite its significant success, has limitation of leaky treatment cascade and calls for policy makers to decentralize the programme by its appropriate integration with general health services and task shifting to improve continuum of care.展开更多

Incomplete or inaccurate documentation can adversely affect the quality of patients’ care, leading to medication and treatment errors, increased morbidity, and mortality. Quality documentation in medical records is therefore an essential component of optimal healthcare and facilitates an individual’s continuity of care. This study aimed to assess the quality of documentation of clinical data through the review of the accuracy and completeness of clinical records among newly diagnosed HIV-positive persons. The study is a sub analysis of a prospective longitudinal study that followed a cohort of 12,413 persons who were newly diagnosed with HIV infection. Severe limitations in retrieving reliable information and data became an obstacle to our research and led the study team to conduct medical records documentation and data audit to verify the accuracy and completeness of the data for newly diagnosed HIV positive persons. <strong>Methods: </strong>A cross-sectional study was conducted using routine data generated from 75 randomly selected newly diagnosed HIV positive persons aged 12-years-old and above between June 1, 2014 and March 31, 2015 in 36 purposively selected primary health care (PHC) clinics in South Africa. The facilities were selected from three high HIV-burden districts of South Africa (Gert Sibande, uThukela and City of Johannesburg). <strong>Results: </strong>Significant differences in the accuracy and completeness of clinical records were observed between data generated through the self-assessment by the facility managers and data primarily collected through review of the patients’ clinical stationery and facility registers. 80% of the newly diagnosed HIV positive persons were not documented as screened for tuberculosis (TB) on the clinical chart and 69% of newly diagnosed clients were not clinically staged (WHO staging).
