Abstract:
Objective:To systematically evaluate the qualitative study on real experiences of HIV/AIDS adolescents transitioning to adult healthcare.Methods:The qualitative research on the real experiences of HIV/AIDS adolescents transitioning to adult healthcare was electronically searched in PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, and China Biology Medicine disc. The search period was from January 1, 2010, to November 5, 2024. The methodological quality of the included literature was evaluated according to the Joanna Briggs Institute Center for Evidence-Based Health Care Quality Assessment Criteria for Qualitative Research. The results were synthesized through the aggregate integration method.Results:A total of 11 articles were included, 52 outcomes were distilled, and similar outcomes were grouped into nine new categories, which were synthesized to form three integrative outcomes (attitudes toward transitioning to adult healthcare, multiple dilemmas faced in transitioning to adult healthcare, and need for comprehensive support during transition to adult healthcare) .Conclusions:HIV/AIDS adolescents have complex attitudes about transitioning to adult healthcare and face multifaceted challenges in the transition process. Healthcare professionals should pay attention to the real experiences of adolescents during the transition period and work with parents and peers to provide holistic support, and meet the diverse needs of adolescents.
