Grant Title: Early Nutrition Intervention in HIV and AIDS.
Project Period: 10/94-09/98.
Description: The goal of this service delivery model is to provide comprehensive nutrition assessment and intervention services to relatively healthy individuals with HIV. Patients are from the Early Intervention Clinic of the Washoe County District Health Department and from private practitioners in the medical service area of Reno, Nevada. The program will: 1) demonstrate the efficacy of nutritional services in preventing or delaying the onset of weight loss and wasting syndrome in individuals with HIV, 2) determine the most practical and cost effective system of incorporating nutrition screening and counseling in a clinic setting, and 3) develop an automated FAX-IN based system for recording, managing, and tracking data from physician and nursing interventions.
