| Research Abstract |
In December 1995 and March 1996, we visited the public and private institutes which were conducting epidemiological studies of HIV/AIDS in Cambodia, and obtained informations related to AIDS patients and HIV infected persons and behavioral epidemiology of CSWs (Commercial Sex Workers). The cumulative reported number of AIDS and HIV infection in Cambodia was 86 and 2,536 cases respectively in 1995. The cause of infection was mostly heterosexual contact but very few of injecting drug use (IDU) and the other causes. The seroprevalence rate of HIV antibody among donated blood rapidly increased from 0.08% in 1991 to 4.47% in 1995, and those among CSWs was averagely 30% (43-14%) and 2.6% (4.4-1.5%) among pregnant women in Phnom Pehn in 1995. The average rate of condom use among CSWs was 66%, but the rate of usual usage was only 14%. These findings are to be published in May 1997. In June and November 1996 and March 1997, we visited Cambodia to make the plan of the newly designed behavioral survey among CSWs with collaboration of AIDS Office of Cambodian Ministry of Health. Finally, the study design was determined as follows : the subjects of survey are 600 persons including 200 direct CSWs, 200 indirect CSWs and 200 clients of the above mentioned CSWs, in five distinct areas in the suburb of Phnom Pehn. Two different questionnaires were prepared, one for CSWs and the other for clients of CSWs including 18 items for each. The survey had been conducted between December 1996 and January 1997 by Cambodian health setting personnels. The results are being analyzed right now, and will be reported in the next phase of the study in 1997.
