30
Q

Neuro impact of HIV

A

Peripheral neuropathy

31
Q

Disease progression gene factors

A

Mutation in CCR5 - hiv uses it to gain entry to CD4 cells

HLA -B27 and 57 - resistance to disease progression

32
Q

HIV 2

A

West Africa
Less transmissible
Less pathogenic
Natural hx similar but lower viral loads and slower progression

33
Q

Baseline ix when hiv pos

A 
HIV serology 1vs2
CD4 count and CD4 %
HIV viral load
Resistance testing at baseline - HLA-B27 and 57 test (for hypersensitivity reaction)
Renal, liver, bone profile
Hba1c
Urine dip 
Urine PCR
FBC
Hep B and C
Vaccinate against Hep B A, varicella and measles if not already
Sti screen inc sts
Women - annual smear. Rubella if no prev vaccine 
Over 40’s - qrisk2  
Over 50 - FRAX
34
Q

When to measure CD4 count

A

> 500 annually
350-500 6/12
<350 - 3/12

Annual hiv viral load, FBC, renal, liver bone profiles lipids ans sti screen

35
Q

What to check pre starting art

A

CD4 in past 3/12
Viral load and full bloods inc urine PCR if urine pos for protein in past 6/12
Review resistance testing
Check tropism test for CCR5 antagonist are considered

36
Q

Post art starting when follow up bloods?

A 
4 week, 3/12 and 6/12
Renal and liver
Urine dip
HIV viral load
If CD4 < 350 when starting art - 3/12ly
37
Q

How to assess birological response to art?

A

HIV viral load should fall by 10fold within 4 weeks
If not do further load after 4 weeks
If not undetectable by 6/12 or rises- virological failure? Incomplete virological response? Rebound or blip?

38
Q

Once established on art when check bloods?

A 
Every 6/12 viral load
If CD4 < 200 3/12
If CD4< 350 annually 
If >350 on 2 occasions over at least 1 year - stop monitoring 
Annual blood screens
39
Q

Once established on ART when to routine screening tests

Smear yearly
Sti screen yearly and every visit for MSM at risk
Qrisk2 annually for those over 40
Frax 3 yearly for those over 50

40
