Data on patients not using CAM and incomplete questionnaires were not used in the data analysis process. Outcomes measures: The outcome measures include the prevalence of CAM use, reasons for using CAM therapies and monthly expenditure with CAM therapies, sources of information about CAM therapies, disclosure of CAM therapy use, knowledge regarding antiretroviral therapy and CAM therapy drug interactions. 2008-05-07T06:43:45Z 2010-06-01T08:44:13Z 2008-05-07T06:43:45Z 2010-06-01T08:44:13Z 2008-03 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/2243 en University of Stellenbosch 1061399 bytes application/pdf application/pdf Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch |
