Sažetak

AIDS is a multimorbid, severe and complex medical illness accompanied
with psychiatric disorders and a strong stigma and discrimination
of the people that are affected. Appearance of standard antiretroviral
therapy and CART (combination antiretroviral therapy) reduced the morbidity
rates of AIDS, but the incidence of AIDS is still on the rise. There are
about 34 million people infected with AIDS worldwide. With the annual
number of new AIDS cases less than 4 per million in the total population,
Croatia is a country that has continuously had a very low incidence of the
disease. Given that patients with AIDS live longer today, they are prone to
psychological problems related to living with a chronic illness. Thus, psychiatric
care is an essential part of a multidisciplinary treatment.
