Microsoft Word - Ch 10 text only.doc Treatment Monitoring The Gypsy Moth Treatment Monitoring Program establishes the procedures and standards necessary for evaluating suppression projects. (...) At a minimum, the evaluation should include 30% of the total number of blocks treated representing at least 50% of the project area (hectares). Treatment Monitoring procedures require four stages of data collection: - pre-treatment - aircraft calibration - on-site monitoring (during treatment) - post-treatment Data collected during all four stages is necessary for a spray block to be entered into the Treatment Monitoring Program. (...) If treatment occurs on more than one day, record treatment block data for subsequent days’ treatment.

  OMS 09 - ARV Guidelines

ARV treatment guidelines for resource-limited settings a) Objectives of the document The updated treatment guidelines are intended to support and facilitate the more universal access to antiretroviral treatment by proposing a public health approach. The key tenets of this approach are: 1. standardization and simplifi cation of antiretroviral treatment regimens with the objective of ‘universal access’, i.e. that all those who need it will have access to antiretroviral treatment; 2. scaling up of antiretroviral treatment programmes to support the effi cient implementation of long-term therapy programmes in resource-limited settings; 3. ensuring that antiretroviral treatment programmes are based on scientifi c evidence, in order to avoid the use of substandard treatment protocols, which compromise the treatment outcome of individual clients and create the potential for emergence of drug-resistant viruses. b) Description of content The guidelines present options for fi rst- and second-line regimens, and recommend when to start antiretroviral treatment, reasons for changing it, and what regimens to continue if treatment needs to be changed. They also address how treatment should be monitored, with specifi c reference to the side effects of antiretroviral treatment, and make specifi c recommendations for certain patient subgroups.

  ILO: Employment crucial for successful HIV/AIDS treatment

ILO: Employment crucial for successful HIV/AIDS treatment People living with HIV who are employed are almost 40 per cent more likely to stick to HIV treatment than those without a job, says a new ILO study released ahead of World AIDS Day. News | 27 November 2013 The report – The Impact of Employment on HIV Treatment Adherence – analyses the findings of 23 studies on the relationship between employment and HIV treatment, and covers more than 6,500 people living with HIV. (...) It found that unemployment, particularly in low and middle-income countries, affects people’s ability to afford treatment, which can lead to interruptions, low viral suppression and ultimately treatment failure.
