Seroprevalence Of Hiv In High Risk Group
Keywords:
HIV,ELISA,STD,Dialysis,HemophiliaAbstract
Objectives:To study the prevalence of seropositivity among the rural and urban patients who dialysis patients and hemophiliacs in the Krishna district.Methods: The study was conducted on the high risk group 557 individuals who were attending STDclinics, undergoing repeated dialysis, hemophiliacs. Subjects were devided in to 6 Groups. Group-1:urban-Patients attending to STD O.P with history of multiple exposures –247.Group-2;rural patients attending to STD OP with history of multiple exposures 183.Group-3 urban Patients undergoing repeated dialysis and attending Nephrology clinic – 48. Group - 4 rural patients undergoing repeated dialysis and attending nephrology clinic-25.Group-5 urbanHaemophiliacs taking frequent blood transfusion and / or factors-32.Group- 6 rural hemophiliacs taking frequent blood transfusion and /or factors-22.Results: HIV prevelance is more in urban patients(Group-1) who were attending STD clinic with multiple exposures (11.37%) than the rural patients(Group-2) who were attending STD clinic with multiple exposures (9.29%).urban population has significantly high prevalence<0.05 of HIV sero positivity than the rural population. Prevalence of HIV in the hemophiliacs(Group-5&Group-6) and dialysis patients(Group-3&Group-4) were zero in both urban and rural groups. patients attending STD clinic showed the high prevalence<0.001 HIV sero positivity than dialysis patients and hemophiliacs. Conclusion: HIV prevalence is more in urban were attending the STD clinics,population who were attending STD clinics.Haemopheliacs and dialysis patients does not show prevalence of HIV.
