简要总结
This study will pilot test an HIV intervention for newly diagnosed youth (diagnosed for less than 15 months) to assess its acceptability and feasibility preliminary to and leading up to a full-scale, randomized trial. The general focus of the intervention is to aid in the psychosocial adjustment of adolescents who have recently been diagnosed with HIV.
详细描述
The intervention will consist of a combination of individual and group-based sessions in which the youth will participate. This combination allows for more intensive individualized attention as well as supportive group sessions. Youth will first participate in two individual sessions, followed by nine group sessions, and end with one additional individual session.
Individual Session I: Orientation I
Part A - meet with interventionist for ecological assessment, rapport building, and preparation for meeting with medical provider Part B - meet with medical provider to answer HIV specific medical questions (i.e., transmission information, viral load/t-cells, opportunistic infections,etc.). The interventionist will be present in Part B as well.
Individual Session II: Orientation II
Part A - meet with interventionist for continued debriefing, question/answer, preparation for group participation.
