Suggestions for clinical nursing research: symptom management in AIDS patients.
Clinical nurse researchers are challenged to formulate and test effective interventions to alleviate the symptoms associated with HIV/AIDS. Although many symptom-management studies have been conducted on specific populations, such as oncology patients, few related nursing studies of persons infected with HIV have been done. The authors offer suggestions for studying symptom management approaches for persons with AIDS. The suggestions represent the funding priorities identified by the National Institute of Nursing Research.
