Slide11How HIV is NOT Transmitted
Through the Air – coughing or sneezing
Through Food or Water

Essentials of Diagnosis
Risk Factors
Systemic Complaints
Opportunistic Infections
Aggressive cancers
Neurologic manifestations
Slide16Confirmation of HIV Infection
Positive HIV Test
Repeatedly positive ELISA – 2 or more
Western Blot
the final confirmation
Positive 10-14 days after HIV infection
most within 3-4 weeks
Symptom onset usually 2-3 weeks for 80-90% of infected patients.
Monitor CD4+ & HIV RNA assay
(standard viral load test)
Slide17Pathogenesis
3 phases
Primary (Acute) Phase
Latent Phase
Early HIV infection
Intermediate HIV infection
Chronic Phase
Late HIV infection
AIDs
CD4+ T cells drop below 200 cells per µL
Slide18Pathophysiology
Immediate Th1 and Th2 response
Autoimmunity
Immunodeficiency
Neurological Dysfunction
