摘要

人類免疫缺乏病毒感染的病人傳染性極大，其自我照顧行為的品質對疾病潛伏期及存活時間有相當的影響。這些病人對其疾病自我照顧之知識、態度及行為到目前尚未被了解。本研究目的在探討人類免疫缺乏病毒感染者自我照顧知識、態度以及行為。研究對象包括五十位人類免疫缺乏病毒感染者與愛滋病人，其中男性46位，女性4位，平均年齡32歲。研究以人類免疫缺乏毒感染者與愛滋病人的自我照顧知識、態度以行為問卷量表，會談個案，進行資料收集。結果顯示，感染者的自我照顧知識整體偏低，態度略偏正向，且自我照顧行為不理想。職業，同性 / 異性戀，以及教育程度分鄂對知識、態度及行為有影響。本研究結果可提供對人類免疫缺乏病毒感染者與愛滋病人的醫療照顧，以及衛生機構愛滋病防治政策的參考。

Patients infected with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) are potential risks for contagion to others. It has been shown that quality of self-care behavior of these patients is closely related to the onset of the AIDS disease and their survival time. The knowledge, attitude and behaviors of self-care among these patients are still not well understood. The purpose of this study was to investigate self-care knowledge, attitude and behavior of patients with HIV infection or with AIDS. Fifty patients, 46 men and 4 women, were recruited in the study. A knowledge, attitude and self-care behavior scale was used by the researcher when interviewing patients. Positive attitude toward self-care was found in these patients, while knowledge and self-care behaviors of the patients were very inadequate. Occupation, educational level and homosexual/heterosexual behavior influenced the knowledge, attitude or self-care of these patients. This study may help medical personnels provide health teaching and care to the patients. It can also be served as basic data for pubic health education on AIDA.
