Who Should Be Tested? • Routine HIV screening for all individuals ages 13-64 in all health-care settings. • At least annual screening for high risk patients: • Injection drug use (sex partners) • Persons who exchange sex for money/drugs • MSM and sex partners of HIV infected persons • Heterosexuals (sex partner) with >1 sex partner since last HIV test • Repeat test before new sexual relationship.
HIV Test • Routine HIV ELISA (HIV-1/O/2) - Positive Western Blot • Rapid HIV ELISA - Negative Routine HIV ELISA - Positive Western Blot • Window Period: - Routine HIV ELISA ~3 weeks - HIV Quantitative PCR ~7 days

ART Basics • General concepts: • Need 3 active agents: (2 NRTI) + (NNRTI or PI or Integrase inhibitor) • Treatment is life-long. Discontinuing ART results in viral rebound. • Goal of therapy • HIV VL < 50 = “undetectable viral load” • ART Resistance • Baseline resistance • Suboptimal medication adherence (90-95% compliance) • Suboptimal pharmacokinetics • Suboptimal potency of the regimen • Resistant strains are “archived” = permanent • Common initial regimens: Atripla (Tenofovir + FTC + Sustiva) - QD Truvada + Reyataz + Norvir - QD Truvada + Isentress - BID Combivir + Kaletra - BID

Rash Any antiretroviral Mild to severe (SJS) First 2 months Nausea/Vomiting Any antiretroviral R/O hepatitis Symptomatic management Diarrhea Any, but usually PIs Symptomatic management Renal failure Tenofovir (Truvada/Atripla) First several months CNS/Psychiatric Efavirenz (Sustiva/Atripla) First several weeks Drug-Drug Interaction New prescriptions Fluticasone, Statins PPIs OTC St. John’s Wort Common adverse reactions
When Should You Stop HAART? • Patient clearly non-compliant (active drug abuse) – not “stopping” and actually “starting” • Severe drug reaction: Abacavir hypersensitivity reaction – fever, rash, GI, and/or pulmonary symptoms within 6 weeks of initiation, association with HLA-B*5701. Lactic acidosis (ddI/d4T>AZT) – malaise, myalgias, non-specific symptoms or critically ill, pancreatitis/hepatitis, elevated serum lactate and acidemia. NNRTI hypersensitivity – occurs within 6 weeks of initiation, hepatitis (fulminant hepatic failure) and/or rash (Stevens-Johnson). Nevirapine hepatotoxicity risk factors: pregnancy, HBV/HCV, CD4 > 250 [F] or CD4 > 400 [M].

Case #1 • 31 M with history of HIV presents with fevers and progressive DOE x 3 weeks. • He reports he was diagnosed with HIV about 10 years ago when he developed shingles. He never followed-up and has never been on HAART. • He does not know his last CD4 count or viral load.

Laboratory Results • CD3 87 • CD4 9 • CD8 75 • CD3, Abs 610 • CD4, Abs 64 • CD8, Abs 530 • HIV VL 500K
Differential DiagnosisPneumonia in HIV • CAP – Pneumococcus, Influenza • Pneumocystis • TB • Coccidioides • Histoplasma • Cryptococcus
Diagnostic Tests • Nasal Influenza swab - negative • Blood cultures - negative • Urine S.pneumonia antigen - negative • Sputum culture - normal flora • Sputum AFB smear - negative x3 • Sputum fungal smear - negative • Induced sputum PCP DFA - negative • Serum Cryptococcal antigen - negative • Coccidioides ELISA - negative
Pneumocystis jiroveci • Subtle – symptoms for weeks to months • 90% with CD4 < 200 or CD4% < 15% • CXR findings variable – possibly negative • Negative CXR – role of HRCT • Diagnosis: • Induced Sputum DFA 50-90% • BAL DFA 90-99% • Transbronchial Bx 95+%
PaO2 < 70 mmHg A-a > 35 mmHg Corticosteroids IV TMP/SMX IV Pentamidine PO TMP/SMX Clinda + Primaquine TMP/Dapsone Atovaquone Therapy • Clinical deterioration common within 3-5d of initiation of therapy, particularly in those not receiving corticosteroids. • Treatment failure if no improvement or worsening after at least 4-8d of therapy.
Prophylaxis TMP/SMX, Dapsone, Atovaquone, Aero Pentamidine Stop prophylaxis when CD4 > 200 x 3 months 20 Prophylaxis: • Requires QD TMP/SMX, not QMWF 10 Prophylaxis: - CD4 < 200, or CD4% < 14% - History of thrush - AIDS defining illness
Pneumonia in HIV • S.pneumoniae remains most common cause. Other organisms = H.influenza, S.aureus, P.aeruginosa. • Give Pneumovax and revaccinate when CD4 > 200. • Pulmonary TB in HIV patients with CD4 > 350 similar to that in non-HIV infected individuals. • Pulmonary TB in AIDS patients – typically no cavitation, appears more like consolidation or diffuse infiltrates. • TB in HIV patients – at higher risk of extrapulmonary disease at all CD4 counts. • AIDS patients and HIV patients with unknown CD4 count presenting with pneumonia Respiratory Isolation.
Coccidioides • Common cause of pneumonia in Arizona • CD4 < 250, past history NOT a risk factor • Radiographs – diffuse or focal infiltrates • Serologic tests ~60% sensitivity • Diagnosis – fungal culture, smear ~40% • Disseminated disease frequent: lymph nodes, meningitis, skin
Case #2 • 42 M with history of IVDA presents with complaints of intermittent fever, HA, and increasing lethargy over the past 4 weeks. • He is subsequently found to be HIV + with a CD4 count of 23. • He reports having been in and out of jail on several occasions. • Poor historian, appears confused.
Differential DiagnosisCNS Lesions in HIV • Toxoplasma Encephalitis • Primary CNS Lymphoma • Bacterial brain abscess • Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy • TB • Cryptococcus • CMV Encephalitis • Chagas disease
