“…This group may remain undiagnosed until symptoms develop or a child is lost due to HIV/AIDS; delayed detection in GW also impacts mother-to-child transmission as well as transmission to other partners (Rahmalia et al, 2015). A 2012 study forecasted that the GW group will become the second biggest category for new HIV infection in Indonesia after MSM (Republic of Indonesia Ministry of Health, 2012).…”

The aim of this qualitative study was to test how social and cultural research methods can be used to anticipate opportunities and barriers to the use of consumer mobile devices by community health workers (CHWs) for HIV/AIDS prevention, testing and treatment. An exploratory study was conducted with CHWs (n = 19) at the regional capitals of Denpasar and Makassar in Indonesia in order to build to a clearer picture of how the participants have integrated personal mobile handsets into their daily professional and personal routine. A communicative ecologies framework was applied to the research design which included a range of qualitative methods including in-depth interviews, focus group discussions and communicative ecology mapping. Our main findings revealed that there was no bottom-up impetus for the introduction of a formal mHealth system to support client interactions. Existing client data collection systems were locked into paper-based systems to ensure compatibility with local government and/or funding body administrative systems; hence, mobile device-based data collection would require additional processes by the participants. Boundary issues were reported with regard to out of hours contact by clients. Some CHWs sent SMS medication reminders to clients but the strong preference indicated by all participating CHWs was to meet clients face-to-face in order to build and maintain trust through the in-person counselling process, rather than introduce mobile-mediated interaction.

HIV-1 viral infections have been found worldwide, including Indonesia. This HIV-1 virus may affect in every group of ages and spread throughout the organs even the central nervous system. The most common complication in central nervous system is HIV encephalopathy (HIVE). HIVE is frequently unrecognized by clinicians. Symptoms of HIVE were included such as growth defect, microcephaly, and symmetrical motoric deficit that occurs for more than 2 months. The aim of this study is to find out the risk factor of HIVE among children in Teratai Clinic, Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung. This was a cross sectional study conducted in Teratai Clinic, Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung. All patients fulfilled inclusion criteria underwent anthropometric measurement, anamnesis, and neurologic examination. Analisis data using multivariate logistic regression. Data were processed by SPSS 20. During period of study, 37 (44%) of pediatric patients with HIV were found suffered from HIVE, with mean of age of 71 months (20-153). Most of the patients were delivered spontaneously, breastfed, and living outside Bandung. Significant risk factor of HIVE incidence were age on diagnosis establishment (p= 0,045, 95% CI: 1,02-6,69) and duration of treatment (p=0,006 , 95% CI: 1). Age on diagnosis that established ≤2 years may contribute in HIVE risk factors. Antiretroviral (ARV) treatment > 5 years may reduce risk of HIVE. Duration of treatment was more significant in decreasing risk of HIVE compared with age in diagnosis established. It was concluded that HIV prevalence in this study was 44%. Age ≤ 2 years old when diagnosed as HIV and duration ARV > 5 years are the significant risk factor on HIVE.

In connection with the transmission of the HIV virus, housewives may have experienced internal stigma, which can have an effect on HIV prevention and the treatment of AIDS. Twenty-three HIV-infected housewives were interviewed in a qualitative study conducted in North Jakarta. The data were analyzed using a phenomenological approach. Seven themes emerged to explore internal stigma housewives and to compose the essence of the internal stigma. The essence of an HIV-infected housewife who has internalized the stigma can be illustrated as an Indonesian proverb which is Hidup Segan Mati Tak Mau or in English can be interpreted as having lost the will to live, but not wanting to die. This could explain that AIDS forces them to live in anxiety in all aspects of life but as housewives, they must keep thinking about continuing life especially with regard to the future of their beloved children.
