Abstract (sommario):

Despite efforts to scale up access to antiretroviral therapy (ART), particularly at primary health care (PHC) facilities, antiretroviral therapy (ART) continues to be out of reach formany human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive children in sub-Saharan Africa. In resource limited settings decentralisation of ART is required to scale up access to essential medication. Traditionally, paediatric HIV care has been provided in tertiary care facilities which have better human and material resources, but limited accessibility in terms of distance for caregivers of HIV-positive children. The focus of this article is on the experiences of caregivers whilst accessing ART for HIV-positive children at PHC (decentralised care) facilities in Nelson Mandela Bay (NMB) in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. A qualitative, explorative, descriptive and contextual research design was used. The target population comprised caregivers of HIV-positive children. Data were collected by means of indepth individual interviews, which were thematically analysed. Guba's model was usedto ensure trustworthiness. Barriers to accessing ART at PHC clinics for HIV-positive children included personal issues, negative experiences, lack of support and finance, stigma and discrimination. The researchers recommend standardised programmes be developed and implemented in PHC clinics to assist in providing treatment, care and support for HIV positive children.

Abstract (sommario):

Background As financial constraints can be a barrier to accessing HIV antiretroviral therapy (ART), we argue for the removal of copayment requirements from HIV medications in South Australia. Methods: Using a simple mathematical model informed by available behavioural and biological data and reflecting the HIV epidemiology in South Australia, we calculated the expected number of new HIV transmissions caused by persons who are not currently on ART compared with transmissions for people on ART. The extra financial investment required to cover the copayments to prevent an HIV infection was compared with the treatment costs saved due to averting HIV infections. Results: It was estimated that one HIV infection is prevented per year for every 31.4 persons (median, 24.0–42.7 interquartile range (IQR)) who receive treatment. By considering the incremental change in costs and outcomes of a change in program from the current status quo, it would cost the health sector $17 860 per infection averted (median, $13 651–24 287 IQR) if ART is provided as a three-dose, three-drug combination without requirements for user-pay copayments. Conclusions: The costs of removing copayment fees for ART are less than the costs of treating extra HIV infections that would result under current conditions. Removing the copayment requirement for HIV medication would be cost-effective from a governmental perspective.

Abstract (sommario):

Background: Adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is a principal determinant of virologic suppression. A variety of factors: including formulation of medicine, dose frequencing, drug toxicities, child’s age, as well as psychosocial, behavioral, and sociodemographic characteristics of children and caregivers have been associated with nonadherence. Still no consistent predictors of either good or poor adherence in children have been consistently identified.Methods: Data was collected from the ART Centre. Record based data from the year 2008 to 2018 April of pediatric age group i.e. from 0-18 years. All the cases registered at the center whose data were available were included for the study. Adherence was assessed calculating the average monthly consumption of ARV assessed by pill count as per NACO guidelines.Results: At the ART Centre, 139 (73.5%) were on treatment i.e. 75.7% of boys registered and 70.9% of registered girls. Average monthly adherence and treatment interruptions among the 73 children alive on ART, majority i.e. 90.4% were on good adherence with 8.2% on less than 80% adherence.Conclusions: Overall a good adherence indicates efficient functioning of the programme and determined efforts from the ART Centre.

Abstract (sommario):

In South Africa, abacavir (ABC) is currently recommended as part of first- and second-line antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV-positive paediatric patients. Concerns about overprescribing of the drug, particularly to adults, led to an analysis of ABC use in public sector ART programmes. We investigated current prescription of the drug to adults and children accessing ART in 4 public sector programmes across Gauteng Province, South Africa. ABC was almost exclusively prescribed to children initiating ART and adults requiring regimen changes due to drug toxicities. Patterns of ABC use among HIV-positive paediatric patients followed national ART treatment guidelines on the application of the drug. Although ABC is commonly used in the private sector for adults, the current national ART treatment guidelines for adults and adolescents should include ABC as an alternative to standard first- or second-line ART.

Abstract (sommario):

Background. Although subSaharan Africa faces the world’s largest paediatric HIV epidemic, only 1 in 4 children has access to combination antiretroviral therapy (ART). A decentralised approach to HIV care is advocated, but programmes in resource-limited settings encounter many challenges to community-initiated paediatric ART implementation. Methods. A retrospective cohort analysis of 613 children receiving ART between 2004 and 2009 was performed in seven physician-run primary healthcare (PHC) clinics in Cape Town. Baseline characteristics, serial CD4+, viral load (VL) levels and status at study closure were collected. Results. Two subgroups were identified: children who were initiated on ART in a PHC clinic (n=343) and children who were down-referred from tertiary hospitals (n=270). The numbers of children initiated on ART in PHC increased sevenfold over the study period. Down-referred children were severely ill at ART initiation, with higher VLs, lower CD4+ counts and higher rates of tuberculosis co-infection (25.3% v. 16.9%; p=0.01). Median time to virological suppression was 29 weeks in PHC-ART initiates and 44 weeks in children down-referred (p<0.0001). Children down-referred to PHC either maintained or gained virological suppression. Longitudinal cohort analysis demonstrated sustained VL suppression >80%, high rates of immune reconstitution and low mortality.Conclusions. Increasing numbers of children are initiated on ART in PHC settings and achieve comparable immunological, virological and survival outcomes, suggesting successful decentralisation of paediatric HIV care. Down-referral of children with adherence-related virological failure may assist with attainment of virological suppression and sparing use of second-line medications.

Abstract (sommario):

SUMMARYSouth Africa's paediatric antiretroviral therapy (ART) programme is managed using a monitoring and evaluation tool known as TIER.Net. This electronic system has several advantages over paper-based systems, allowing profiling of the paediatric ART programme over time. We analysed anonymized TIER.Net data for HIV-infected children aged <15 years who had initiated ART in a rural district of South Africa between 2005 and 2014. We performed Kaplan–Meier survival analysis to assess outcomes over time. Records of 5461 children were available for analysis; 3593 (66%) children were retained in care. Losses from the programme were higher in children initiated on treatment in more recent years (P < 0·0001) and in children aged ≤1 year at treatment initiation (P < 0·0001). For children aged <3 years, abacavir was associated with a significantly higher rate of loss from the programme compared to stavudine (hazard ratio 1·9, P < 0·001). Viral load was suppressed in 48–52% of the cohort, with no significant change over the years (P = 0·398). Analysis of TIER.Net data over time provides enhanced insights into the performance of the paediatric ART programme and highlights interventions to improve programme performance.

Abstract (sommario):

Background: Cardiovascular abnormalities are not much reported among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected children especially in Africa where there is high HIV disease. In addition, the use of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in such children may have a protective effect on the cardiovascular system. Methods: Cross-sectional study of randomly selected eighty HIV infected and 80 aged matched non- HIV-infected chil- dren were used. HIV-infected children were on HAART for more than 5years and had steadily received the treatment for 6 months prior to the time of the tests. Heights and weights were measured and body mass index calculated. Cardiac indi- ces evaluated were heart rate (HR), PR interval, QRS duration, QT/QTC Interval, P/QRS/T Axis, RV5/SV1 voltage and RV5+SV1 voltage. Results: The average heart rate was significantly higher among HIV infected children on HAART than their non-infected counterparts (P= 0.019). At 0.05 significance level, their PR interval was significantly higher than those in the control group (P=0.050). The average QRS duration result also showed a significant difference between that of test and control subjects (P = 0.022) Conclusion: The HAART usage possibly improved the cardiovascular functioning in the infected children but the protective effects diminish with increase age and longer exposure. Keywords: HIV; cardiovascular; children; HAART.

Abstract (sommario):

Introduction: With the large volumes of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive patients in South Africa, one clinical management strategy has been to task shift. This means that previously hospi-centric HIV services have devolved to primary health care (PHC) clinics. The referral pattern is true for paediatric patients as well. With the added complexity of managing children, there was a concern in the research district that children were not being optimally managed at PHC level. Method: A quality improvement project was initiated to assess HIV-positive children’s management at PHC clinics and to implement an intervention to improve this care. Results: The initial audits of 624 children in the district revealed that only 66.6% of children had undetectable viral loads (VLs). Other poor indicators were lack of regular blood results, omission of prophylactic isoniazide (INH) and cotrimoxazole etc. Documents were disorganised and not standard across the district. The intervention sought to place the local clinic doctor as the champion in each clinic. A reorganised file was planned where all the care elements would be clearly present. Conclusion: Post intervention, it was clear that where individual doctors took on the challenge of quality improvement there were significant process changes. Results are discussed in detail.

Background:HIV is a worldwide pandemic with an estimated 2.5 million children under the age of 15 living with HIV in the world in 2009. Children account for approximately 14% of all HIV-related deaths around the world. Several studies have shown that the use of antiretroviral drugs greatly improve the lives of HIV-1 infected individuals, however, most of these studies report on outcomes of ART programmes in developed world and for adult patients. Very few settings have published outcomes of paediatric ART programmes.Objectives This research was aimed at describing the long term (at least one year) treatment outcome of HIV-1 infected children in the HIV/AIDS Prevention Group (HAPG) program in Bela-Bela in the Limpopo province of South Africa.Study design and methods: A quantitative approach involving a retrospective cohort design was used for the study. The study included all children under the age of 15 that were enrolled in the HATG treatment programme in Bela-Bela between February 2004 and December2009.Immunological, virological, clinical outcomes and loss to follow-up were determined for this cohort. Mortality and survival was also determined. Results: The median age of children in this study was 5 years (IQR: 2-7) with 14% (10/71) of them being less than 18 months. Median CD4 count at commencement of ART, viral load and weight were 358 cells/mm3 (IQR 203.5-, 125673 RNA copies/μL (IQR 58094-328424.5) and 14.5Kg (IQR: 11.0-18.35) respectively. CD4 counts and weight showed increase within the study period, and there was also a decline in viral load. Loss to follow-up was 7.04% while mortality was 19% with 21.43% of mortality cases being children who were ≤18months. Mortality occurred within the first year of ART initiation and occurred in cases that had advanced disease.Conclusion: This study shows that the ART program in Bela-Bela has a positive outcome on HIV positive children.The high mortality rate was due to children starting ART at an advanced disease stage. Despite the good outcome, it is recommended that a system be put into place that will aid in identifying children at an early stage of the disease and treatment initiated promptly.

Abstract (sommario):

Children with special needs often have a tendency to be externally oriented because of their accumulated failure experiences. Accordingly, when children enjoy successful experiences through art making, they may be more likely to feel a sense of control and employ their own abilities The purpose of this study was to identify differences in the impact of two-dimensional (2D) versus three-dimensional (3D) art materials on LOC in South Korean elementary school children with special needs. This study compares the effects of 2D and 3D clay-based art materials in art therapy on LOC in special needs children in group art therapy in South Korea.

This mixed methods study employed a quantitative pre and post-test control group design with a qualitative component. 15 Children with special needs in a South Korean elementary school were divided into three groups using: (1) 2D art media only, (2) only 3D clay-based art media only, and (3) no artistic intervention. The two treatment groups underwent 10 sessions of art therapy. The age of the15 participants ranged from 7-12 years. The Stanford Preschool Internal-External Scale (Mischel, Zeiss, and Zeiss, 1974) was utilized for both the pre- and posttests. For qualitative data, observation, teacher interview, and art pieces were used. One-way ANOVA, Shapiro-Wilk Statistic, post hoc test (Student-Newman-Keuls, Duncan, and Keuky HSD test), paired samples test, and Wilcoxon singed rank test were used for quantitative analysis. Result of quantitative and qualitative data indicate that 2D group and 3D group both showed increased internal LOC score, however, 3D group showed more significant change when analyzed the data using Post-hoc test (SNK and Duncan). The result supported the use of clay-based 3D art media aimed special needs children group art therapy programs.

Abstract (sommario):

This study aimed to construct, and implement an in-school "art expression" based programme designed to aid in mitigation of psychological stress, behavioural difficulties, and self-negativity frequently experienced by marginalised children. It was developed for application within schools that cater for children exposed to neglect and/or abuse resulting from poverty in South Africa. This programme outline was developed and implemented through intensive exploration and review of previously effective art therapy, art expressive methods and techniques in similar contexts, together with the knowledge and experience of a qualified art therapist and educational psychologist. Data was collected through open-ended informal qualitative interviews, observations, and photographs of artworks produced during sessions. These were then analysed in conjunction, using the content analysis method, visual interpretive measures and thematic analysis. This enquiry documented the process of art creation through "art expression", and its ability to ameliorate psychological difficulties affecting marginalised children in South Africa. Following the establishment of trust between the researchers and the participants, the results found that the use of different art modalities demonstrated predominantly positive results in varying degrees. It is hoped that this study can be used to further practical interventions of this nature in comparable milieus in South Africa.

Abstract (sommario):

Background: Although clinicians encounter antimycobacterial treatment in Human mmunodeficiency (HIV)-infected children as one of the most common treatments coadministered with antiretroviral treatment (ART), quantitative data on the extent of antimycobacterial treatment among HIV-infected children at the time of commencement of ART and at different times during ART is scarce. The baseline risk factors associated with being on both ART and antimycobacterial treatments are not known and it remains to be elucidated how the different exposure factors impact on the antimycobacterial treatment-free survival of children who begin ART without antimycobacterial treatment.Objectives: To describe the prevalence of antimycobacterial treatment among children at the time of starting ART and the antimycobacterial treatment-free survival after starting ART. Design: A retrospective cohort study based on record reviews at the Harriet Shezi children&lsquo
s clinic (HSCC).Population: HIV-infected children less than fifteen years of age presumed ART naï
ve started on ART at HSCC.Analysis: A descriptive analysis of the prevalence of antimycobacterial treatment at time of start of ART was done. Kaplan Meier (KM) survival curves were used to determine the antimycobacterial treatment-free survival and logistic regression was used to analyze the association between baseline factors and future antimycobacterial treatment among children who had no antimycobacterial treatment at time of start of ART. Results: The prevalence of antimycobacterial treatment at the time of starting ART was 518/1941 (26.7%, 95% confidence interval (CI): 24.7-28.7). Among children who started ART without antimycobacterial treatment, the KM cumulative probability of antiretroviral and antimycobacterial (ART/antimycobacterial) co-treatment in the first 3 months of starting ART was 4.6% (95% CI: 4.1- 5.2), in the first 12 months it was 18.1% (95% CI: 17.0-19.2) and in the first 24 months of starting ART it was 24% (95% CI: 21.9-25.1). Survival analysis suggested that children with high baseline viral load, advanced World Health Organization (WHO) stage of disease, very low normalized weight for age (waz) and very young age (less than one year) at start of ART had significantly reduced antimycobacterial treatment-free survival (log rank p <
0.05) in the first two years of starting ART. In the logistic regression model, age less than one year {Odds ratio (OR): 3.7 (95% CI: 2.2-6.0
p <
0.0001)} and very low weight for age Z-score (waz <
-3) {OR
2.2 (95% CI: 1.4-3.6
p = 0.0015)} were the two critical risk factors independently associated with future antimycobacterial treatment. Conclusions: Antimycobacterial treatment is extremely common among HIV-infected children at the time of starting ART and early after starting ART and the incremental risk of being on ART/antimycobacterial co-treatment decreases with time on ART. The results emphasize the need for a heightened and careful alertness for mycobacterial events especially among children starting ART with severe malnutrition and those who start ART at age less than one year. The results further suggest that it is probably optimal to start ART in children before their nutritional status has deteriorated severely in the course of the HIV disease so that they get protection against mycobacterial events by early ART.

Abstract (sommario):

Youth and children constitute seventy percent of the population in South Africa. It is these children who carry the potential for the future of our nation. However, in the aftermath of apartheid, the number of children requiring psychological services far outweigh the resources available. There exist only small numbers of mental health services and professionals within the communities, to deal adequately with these difficulties. Thus this research aims to determine the effectiveness of short-term psychodynamically oriented art therapy with South African children. Six children were selected for therapy from a school in Soweto, on the basis of immediate need for therapy. The subjects participated in a six week intervention programme, where each child was engaged in art therapy individually once a week. Pre and Post-Art Therapy Questionnaires were completed by each subject’s class teacher.These questionnaires, together with the images created by the children, were analysed qualitatively in order to assess whether art therapy with children is effective from a short-term psychodynamic orientation within the South African context.

Survival of children with HIV/AIDS has increased considerably with the use of effective antiretroviral therapy. However, the benefits of this therapy are limited by the difficulty of adherence to the treatment. This study sought to explore the role of professional nurses on anti-retroviral therapy adherence among children in Lejweleputswa district: Free State, South Africa. An exploratory descriptive qualitative research design was used to identify and describe role of professional nurses toward anti-retroviral therapy adherence among children. Population for this study included seventeen (17) professional nurses working in four purposively sampled Primary Health Care clinics invited to participate in the study. Four focus group discussions were conducted in which each group had 6 participants. The transcribed data was analysed using the framework approach of data analysis. Professional nurses in Lejweleputswa district report poor knowledge of parents/caregivers of children, perceived poverty, stigma and discrimination, inappropriate care approaches, and parental dynamics as factors influencing poor ART adherence. Recommendations for enhancing children ART adherence levels in Lejweleputswa district included: mainstreaming adherence counselling in children ART and adopting a comprehensive family centered care approach were identified as measures for improving children ART adherence. Other measures included integration of ART services into Primary Health Care (PHC) services, parental empowerment, development of a programme to reduce stigma and discrimination in the community.

The body has always fascinated me! As a classically trained dancer with a Physical Theatre background, I learnt to use my body as a means of expressing myself. I saw the body as a means to performance, but I believed there was more to the body than just being put on show. In University I learnt about and came to understand the mind-body connection (Plamer, 2009). This interested me and I began to search deeper, with the question that if the body and mind are connected, where are our human memories stored? I have always wondered what moves me and what moves the people around me… This research was a platform for me to look into the notion of the mind, body connection and memory. Through the use of story and movement, I began to consider bullying as a memory which the body and mind both experience. Through the research I focused on where the body had stored this experience and what were the effects of this stored memory (the aftermath). The rest of this paper unpacks my research and my findings working with a client centred approach. In this paper I speak back to the approach I took during the research process, using Laban’s 8 Effort actions, Lahad’s 6 Part Story Method and Whitehouse’s Authentic Movement as part of the integration process speaking back to bullying.

The aim of this study was to compile a programme to prepare the child in a children's home for family re-unification. An extensive study of relevant literature was conducted and included works on subjects such as the middle childhood years, the child in the children's home, family re-unification, the Gestalt approach and Gestalt play techniques. An empirical study was undertaken with semi structured interviews with social workers and family re-unification workers. From these resources some themes were identified to be included in the programme. Conclusions and suggestions were made in the interest of the implementation of the programme.
