ObjectiveTo explore the methods to improve the social support of HIV/AIDS patients in order to improve their quality of life. Methods115 cases of HIV/AIDS patients beginning to receive the anti-viral therapy were given nursing intervention.Social support rating scale (SSRS),quality of lifeKarnofsky scale were adopted to evaluate the social support and quality of life before and 3 months after nursing intervention. ResultsThe social support and quality of life of patients improved after intervention compared with those before intervention,and with improvement of social support,the quality of life was accordingly increased. ConclusionsSocial support under nursing intervention help to improve quality of life of HIV/AIDS patients,and can support evidence for education and strategies implementation of treatment compliance for HIV/AIDS patients receiving antiretroviral therapy.

Objective To study the treatment of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in patients with HIV infection and AIDS and the patients′ survival time after HAART treatment. Methods Three thousand and one hundred cases of HIV infection and AIDS patients received HAART in 12 months by monthly flow cytometry instrument MultiSET absolute counting method detecting the CD4+T cell levels, bDNA method (detection range 1.60 log ~ 6.10 log RNA copies/mL) detecting serum HIV-1 viral load under rigorous clinical observation. Results Twelve months after treatment, the CD4+T cell count increased an average of 430 × 106/L (P < 0.01). Eight months after treatment, all viral loads reached their measurable levels (below 1.70 log copies/mL) by decreasing 45 log copies/mL on average. Conclusion HIV/AIDS patients showed treatment extremely significant possitive responses to highly active antiretroviral therapy. The patients′ survival rate after treatment has greatly improved compare to that in previous literature.
