title: A call for help: collaborative nursing research.
abstract: Key issues related to HIV nursing research are the focus of this literature review. Results of two prior literature reviews are combined with the author's current review to serve as a basis for discussion. Findings indicate that further research is needed, particularly in the area of physiological responses to nursing care. Collaboration between clinicians and researchers is viewed as the most effective way to conduct HIV nursing research. Suggestions related to ways of facilitating collaborative research are discussed.
