Abstract
In 914 consecutive medical admissions to Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital, the prevalence of infection with Human Immunodeficiency Virus type I (HIV-I) and Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 2 (HIV-2) was 12.6%. The prevalence in females was twice that found in males. The infection rate was maximum in the age group 25-29 years for females (45%) and 30-34 years for males (29%). There were 7 cases infected with HIV-2 alone, 55 cases infected with HIV-I alone and 53 cases with dual infection. The cases with HIV-2 infection tended to be older than those with HIV-I infection. For detecting HIV seropositivity in our patients the World Health Organization recommended case definition for AIDS in Africa gave a sensitivity of 32%, a specificity of 93% and a positive predictive value of 42%. The case definition gave the highest specificity and positive predictive values when cases of tuberculosis were not included in the analysis.
