MANAGEMENT

mixture benadryl elixir and maalox
HIV
transmission
blood
semen
vaginal secretion
breast milk
sex with infected partner
exposure to inf bl or bl product
preg, or delivery
Pathophysiology
RNA virus called retrovirus cuz replicate backwards
use chemokine receptors to bind and enter into CD4 T cells
-once bound transcript become double stranded DNA
-enter cell nucleus and become part of genome
initial infection HIV
viremia -large viral levels in blood for 2 to 3 W
*transmission more likely when viral load high
-prolonged period with low viral load
cells with CD4 receptors
CD4 T cells (T helper cells)
lymphocytes
monocytees
astrocytes
oligodendrocytes
immune dysfx result of
destruction of CD4 cells
WHY
these cells play role in immune recognization and defense against pathogen

diffuse rash
-occur 1 to 3 W after inf
-high viral load
early chronic HIV
asymptomatic
may have fatigue headache
low grade fever
