摘要

人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)感染已被视为一个全球性的公共卫生问题。在缩小诊断方面现有差距的全球使命中,鼓励在不同环境中采取一些促进艾滋病毒检测的战略。使用自检包检测艾滋病毒感染已成为确定新病例并将受影响人群与卫生保健提供系统联系起来的重要方法。令人震惊的事实是,尽管艾滋病毒是印度的一个主要公共卫生问题,但我们迄今没有关于促进自我检测的政策。印度最近发布的一份报告的调查结果显示,人们发现,弱势群体及其伴侣可以接受自我测试。总而言之,认识到与自我检测相关的优点,考虑到在印度环境中取得的令人鼓舞的结果,决策者现在需要起草期待已久的政策,在全国促进艾滋病毒自我检测并加以推广。

Human immunodeficiency virus self-testing in India: Time to move from evidence to implementation
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection has been regarded as a global public health concern. In the global mission to minimize the existing gap on the diagnostic front, a number of strategies to promote HIV testing have been encouraged in heterogeneous settings. Detection of HIV infection using self-testing kits has emerged as an important approach to ascertain the identification of new cases and for connecting the affected people with the health-care delivery system. It is quite an alarming fact that despite HIV is a major public health problem in India, we to date have no policy on the promotion of self-testing. The findings of a recently released report in India revealed that self-testing was found to be acceptable to vulnerable population groups and their partners. To conclude, acknowledging the merits that have been linked with self-testing and considering the encouraging results obtained in Indian settings, it is the need of the hour that policymakers draft the much-awaited policy on the promotion of HIV self-testing in the nation and promote it.
