Audit of HIV partner notification in a district general hospital.
We evaluated partner notification for HIV in a district general hospital over a two-year period. The majority of current partners were notified and 60% were found to be HIV-positive. No previous partners were successfully notified. We make recommendations intended to improve the rate of notification and testing.
