説明

Objective: To show a trend in the number of patients with HIV/AIDS treated in area hospitals specializing in AIDS treatment in Japan.<BR>Material and Methods: Two surveys were conducted in 2001 and 2002, covering the area hospitals specializing in AIDS treatment. We asked the number of HIV-infected persons and AIDS cases, by nationality, who were under treatment on April 1, 2001 or 2002. The numbers of patients in 2001 and in 2002, except for those infected by blood products, treated in the hospitals responding to both two surveys were compared.<BR>Results: Responses to the two surveys were available from 314 hospitals (86%). The total number of patients treated in these hospitals was 2, 976 in 2001 and 3, 991 in 2002.The ratio of the number of patients in 2002 to that of in 2001 was 1.34. By HIV/AIDS, the ratios were 1.36 in HIV-infected persons and 1.31 in AIDS cases. By nationality, the ratios were 1.36 in Japanese and 1.21 in non-Japanese. By districts, the ratios were 1.22 in the Tokyo districts, 1.35 in the Kanto and Koshinetsu district (outside Tokyo), and 1.33-1.91 in other districts, respectively. A few hospitals treated more than fifty patients, while there were many hospitals with no patients in 2001 and 2002. The mean increase in number of patients from 2001 to 2002 increased as the number of patients in 2001 was larger.<BR>Conclusion: The number of patients with HIV/AIDS under treatment increased 1.34 times from 2001 to 2002. The increase ratio differed by nationality or by district. There was a great difference between hospitals in the number of patients under treatment, and this difference was expanded.
