Résumé :
FRANÇAIS :
L'étude porte sur les différentes pratiques d'injection. Dans un couple, l'un des partenaires relate des pratiques à risque(échange de seringue ou d'aiguille), et met ainsi en danger celui qui essaie de se protéger
ENGLISH :
This study sought to identify differences within injection drug using (IDU) couples in reporting of sexual and needle risk behavior. Subjects were thirty-nine heterosexual couples entering methadone maintenance. Within the couples, a number of differences between members of the couple in injection equipment sharing were noted,suggesting that individuals who attempt to protect themselves by not sharing injection equipment may be placed at risk by their sexual partners. Further clinical and research efforts should be directed toward reducing barriers to behavior that would protect both partners. (Extract from authors'abstract)
