13557. HEPATITIS C. This paper provides an overview and analysis of hepatitis C. Although the information provided is drawn from the professional health care literature, the intent of this paper is to provide an overview of hepatitis in a language and format understandable to the nonprofessional, "lay" audience. The first section profiles the anatomy and patho-physiology of hepatitis C, including virus transmission, the structure of the virus, ad the disease process. The sections discuss diagnostic measures and procedures and usual treatment (s) for HCV infection. A section on "recent developments" looks at new treatment modalities, research trends, and provides directions on how clients can locate new information about the disease process. The last two sections discuss complications of the disease process and psychosocial aspects of HCV infection, looking at how the disease affects the quality of life for clients and their families. The appendix includes a list of community resources and organizations and a nursing care plan. 15p. + appendix; 65f. 34b.   $105
