• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This definitive guide walks readers from foundational concepts through advanced clinical decision-making. You'll unpack how a retroviral infection establishes lifelong persistence, why CD4 dynamics matter, and how resistance emergesand then translate that science into bedside choices. Realistic scenarios (a needlestick in a busy ER; a teenager seeking confidential testing; a pregnant patient initiating therapy) ground the material in day-to-day practice. Clear algorithms demystify when to test, start, switch, and monitor therapy; side-effect triage; drugdrug interactions; and adherence troubleshooting. Prevention receives equal weight, from barrier methods and harm reduction to PrEP/PEP and treatment as prevention (U=U). The book closes with implementation pearlsclinic workflows, stigma-aware counseling, and metrics that improve outcomes across diverse settings.

✓ Tiered learning path: core science → clinic skills → systems practice ✓ Step-by-step testing: antigen/antibody assays, NAT, window periods, confirmatory flow ✓ Treatment playbook: initiating ART, managing toxicity, resistance, and comorbidities ✓ Prevention toolkit: PrEP, PEP, perinatal protocols, partner services, U=U explained ✓ Case-based learning: realistic vignettes with decisions, pitfalls, and debriefs ✓ Implementation guides: adherence counseling, quality indicators, and team workflows
