Research priorities for psychosocial aspects of nursing care in HIV disease.
The complex biopsychosocial aspects of nursing care for persons infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) present formidable challenges for nursing research. Suggestions for clinical nursing research related to physiological aspects of HIV care recently were addressed by Zeller, Swanson, and Cohen (1993). The authors highlight the research priorities related to psychosocial aspects of nursing care in HIV disease, as identified for the 1990-1994 National Nursing Research Agenda by the National Center for Nursing Research (NCNR) (1990). The authors conclude that the NCNR's 1990 recommendations remain relevant priorities for research concerning the psychosocial aspects of nursing care for persons with HIV disease.
