In Cambodia, sentinel surveillance data are used for estimating national HIV prevalence and modeling trends in HIV and AIDS incidence and mortality. In 2003, Cambodia conducted its ninth round of HIV sentinel surveillance (HSS) in 22 of its 24 provinces and municipalities. Sentinel groups surveyed were brothel-based female sex workers (FSW), female beer promoters and women working in karaoke establishments as a proxy for informal female sex workers (IFSW), policemen, and pregnant women attending antenatal care (ANC) clinics.
