Information Communication Technology (ICT) use among PLHIV in China: A promising but underutilized venue for HIV prevention and care
چکیده فارسی:
در این مقاله، ما استفاده از تکنولوژی اطلاعات و ارتباطات (ICT) را بین بیمارنی که با HIV در Guangxi, China زندگی میکنند (PLHIV) گزارش میکنیم. تمام ۲۹۸۷ شرکت کننده از ۱۲ مکان با بالاترین میزان از شاخص تجمعی HIV، شامل ۲ شهر و ۱۰ شهرستان استخدام شده بودند. براورد پرسشنامه ای برای جمع اوری داده درباره ی ویژگی های دموگرافی اجتماعی شرکت کنندگان، نتایج بالینی، عفونت ها و عفونت های همراه، الگوی استفاده از ICT، و تمایل به استفاده از ICT در HIV و مدیریت AIDS انجام شد. داده ها با استفاده از SPSS نسخه ی ۲۴. آنالیز شد. نتایج نشان دادند که ۷۸.۷% (n = 2347) هرگز از رایانه استفاده نکرده بودند، ۸۶.۹% (n = 2587) تلفن همراه داشتند، ۳۲.۷% (n = 207) ایمیل داشتند، و ۸۵.۴% (n = 544) حساب رسانه های اجتماعی داشتند. کمتر از نیمی از شرکت کنندگان گزارش دادند که تا به حال از ICTs برای مدیریت HIV استفاده نکرده اند. تنها ۲۶.۲% (n = 266) تمایل داشتند به برنامه ی پیشگیری از HIV مبتنی بر وب ملحق شوند.
یافته های این مطالعه نشان میدهد که عدم تعادلی در مالکیت دستگاه ICT شرکت کنندگان و انتخاب های اساس رسانه وجود دارد. به نظر میرسد رسانه ی اجتماعی یک اساس و سطح بالقوه برای مداخله ی سلامت بین این گروه است. نفوذ کمی از استفاده از رایانه بین شرکت کنندگان روستایی و نابرابری بزرگی بین شرکت کنندگان روستایی و شهری وجود داشت، که نیاز به گسترش زیرساخت اخیر مرتبط با ICTs و افزایش سواد سلامت مردم را نشان میدهد. همچنین نیاز است تا تحقیقات آینده به امنیت و قابلیت اعتماد برنامه ی مداخله توجه کنند تا ICTs را بعنوان سطح کارامد و قابل اعتماد برای پیشگیری و مراقبت از HIV بهتر ارتقا دهد.
کلمات کلیدی: ICT، استفاده از رایانه، PLHIV، پیشگیری و مراقبت از HIV
Abstract
In this paper, we report the use of information and communication technology (ICT) among people living with HIV (PLHIV) in Guangxi, China. A total 2987 participants were recruited from 12 sites with the highest number of cumulative HIV incidence, including 2 cities and 10 counties. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect data on the participants’ social demographic characteristics, clinical outcomes, infections and coinfections, pattern of ICT use, and use and intention of using ICT in HIV and AIDS management. The data was analyzed using SPSS, version 24. The results showed 78.7% (n = 2347) never used a computer, 86.9% (n = 2587) had a cellphone, 32.7% (n = 207) owned an email account, and 85.4% (n = 544) owned a social media account. Less than half of the participants reported ever using ICTs for HIV management. Only 26.2% (n = 266) were willing to join a web-based HIV prevention program.
Findings of this study suggest that there was an imbalance in the participants’ ICT device ownership and choices of media platform. Social media appeared to be a potential platform for health intervention among this group. There was a low penetration of computer use among rural participants and a large disparity between the urban and rural participants, which indicated a need to expand the current infrastructure related to ICTs and increase people’s health literacy. Future research also needs to pay attention to security and trustworthiness of the intervention program to better promote ICTs as an efficient and reliable platform for HIV prevention and care.
Introduction
The application of Information and Communication technology (ICT) in HIV prevention and treatment has been increasingly examined. ICTs provide people living with HIV (PLHIV) with the possibility of remote access as well as low cost of delivery in reducing the virus transmission and in improving the quality of care (Catalani, Philbrick, Fraser, Mechael, & Israelski, 2013; Muessig, Pike, LeGrand, & Hightow-Weidman, 2013; Zhang & Li, 2017). A substantial body of literature focusing on assessments of efficacy and feasibility of ICT use also indicates that the ICT facilitated intervention has become a promising strategy for a population, which is hard to reach and at high risk of HIV infection (Holloway et al., 2014; Lelutiu-Weinberger et al., 2015; Muessig et al., 2015; Mustanski, Garofalo, Monahan, Gratzer, & Andrews, 2013; Noar, Black, & Pierce, 2009; Roth et al., 2014; Velthoven, Brusamento, Majeed, & Car, 2013; Ybarra & Bull, 2007).
Computer-based intervention was widely applied in every key component of HIV prevention and treatment, including diagnosis, medical adherence, risk behavior reduction and sigma elimination (Aronson et al., 2016; Bonar et al., 2014; Festinger, Dugosh, Kurth, & Metzger, 2016; Kurth et al., 2016; Roberto et al., 2007). The use of a computer also plays an indispensable role in improving the access to information and in increasing the patients’ level of health literacy in terms of HIV (Jacobs, Caballero, Ownby, & Kane, 2014; Ownby, Waldrop-Valverde, Jacobs, Acevedo, & Caballero, 2013).
There were approximately 501,000 PLHIV in China by the end of 2014 (UNAIDS, 2015) and the disease has been most prevalent among men have sex with men (MSM), injecting drug users (IDU), and female sex workers (FSW) (Hu et al., 2017; Zhang et al., 2013). Research has demonstrated that ICT plays an innovative role in effectively delivering HIV and AIDS prevention campaigns or information targeting on these key populations (Avery, Gang, & Mills, 2014; Cheng et al., 2016; Hu et al., 2017; Huang et al., 2013; Muessig et al., 2015; Shi & Chen, 2014; Zou et al., 2013). In addition to the fact that 92% of the Chinese population own a cellphone and 51.7% having access to the Internet (ITU, 2017a, 2017b), ICT has the penetration to function as a powerful and indispensable venue in promoting HIV prevention and treatment in China.
However, although research focusing on HIV prevention involving ICT progressed rapidly, little evidence has been documented on the ICT use behavior of PLHIV in China. The absence of a good understanding of the use pattern of ICT could possibly limit the utilization, acceptability, and effectiveness of the programs, and moreover, will hinder the future development and scale-up of the interventions. Thus, to provide a better understanding of the potential for application of cutting-edge products and services, the main purpose of this study is to explore the use of ICT among PLHIV, including computer use, and their intention of using ICT in HIV and AIDS prevention and treatment.
