title: [Activities of a consultation and diagnostic polyclinic for AIDS and AIDS-related infections].
abstract: The analysis of curative and diagnostic work of AIDS counselling and diagnostic units (CDU) showed that during a year and a half 15,000 people had been screened, 27 of these were identified as persons infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and 4 persons identified at other places, were registered for followup. It was found that 51.3 percent of people were screened anonymously, reason for screening being epidemiological indications--history of blood transfusions, homosexual contacts, irregular sexual intercourse. The rest did not observe anonymity, 10.7 percent of these persons were screened by clinical indications. The in-depth clinical screening of patients who sought care in CDU, patients infected with HIV and persons who had contacts with them, required the consultative services of different specialists--dermatovenerologists, gynaecologists, sexologists, stomatologists and some others. It determined the necessity of establishing an outpatient department of "AIDS and AIDS-indicatory infections" which represented a new organizational form of AIDS service.
