The discussion of HIV medication changes by society and race
It is shown through many proofs and evidences that the race and ethnicity of a patient is related to difference in the way the health care professional’s converse with them, the type of heath care received by them and its outcomes. Actually, in HIV care, it is mainly considered whether people have their medicines according to prescription or not. It if found through a new study of the doctor and patient talk on HIV drug based on the race and ethnicity of the patient.
The Researchers utilized the Generalized Medical Interaction Analysis that differentiates the conversation into different units known as “utterances” which are based on speech actions like providing information, interrogating, giving instructions, expressing desires or making requests.
The lead author and assistant professor of health services and practice in Brown University school of Public Health, M. Barton Laws produced three findings which are:
• Different speech patterns
• More talk on HIV drugs with community
• Directives which are not solving the problem
According to Laws, “we’ve found there is something going on and it would be good to understand it better.”
