SAS#4 Flashcards
Is an immune deficiency that is acquired not hereditary nor born. A Syndrome, a combination of signs and symptoms that form a distinct clinical picture of disorder
AIDS OR ACQUIRED IMMUNE DEFICIENCY SYNDROME
Is a retrovirus that belongs to lentivirus or called “slow virus”
HIV HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS
HIV invade several types of cells
LYMPHOCYTES
MACROPHAGES
LANGERHANS
NEURONS
When hiv infection takes place, anti-hiv antibodies are produced but they do not appear immediately this is called the
WINDOW EFFECT
The period between infection and appearance of AIDS can take from
7-12 years
The organism attached to CD4 (protein molecule) is found in the
T4 cells
When hiv antibodies are not detectable in the blood at the time of examination. It is considered as
NEGATIVE ANTIBODY TEST
When hiv antibodies are present in the blood, in the positive antibody test, the person is considered
HIV POSITIVE
Is a criterion that determines whether the client is hiv positive or whether the illness is already categorized as AIDS
CD4 COUNT

Cryptosporidiosis is caused by a microscopic parasite ____known as___
CRYPTOSPORIDIUM
CRYPTO
Aids drugs are not cure for hiv infections
They inhibit the reproduction of the virus
ANTIRETROVIRAL DRUGS
Prevent hiv from entering cells by blocking a membrane receptor on the host cell
CCR5 ANTAGONIST
Maraviroc
Prevent hiv from entering cells by binding of viral protein needed for its entry
FUSION INHIBITORS
Infuvirtide
Impair the function of hiv’s integrace enzyme, which incorporates of viral dna into the host cells genom
INTEGRASE INHIBITORS
Raltegravir
Bind active sites on hiv reverse transcriptase enzyme, blocking the ability of hiv to produce dna copies of its genetic material
NON-NUCLEOSIDE REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE INHIBITORS (NNRTI)
Efavirenz, etravirine, nevirapine
As analogs of the nucleoside needed for dna synthesis,____impaired ability of hiv reverse transcriptase enzyme to produce usable copies of dna
NUCLEOSIDE REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE INHIBITORS
Didanosine, lamivudine, zidovudine
inhibit hiv protease enzyme, which cleaves hiv gene products into usable structural proteins
PROTEASE INHIBITORS
Ritonavir, saquinavir , tipranavir
Nursing diagnosis for hiv and aids
KNOWLEDGE DEFICIT
SOCIAL ISOLATION
