Ans |>> Progressive,chronic asymptomatic infection, AIDS Progression of HIV infection - Ans |>> - Manifestation within 2 to 4 weeks of infection - symptoms similar to flu include rash and sore throat - rapid rise in HIV viral load, decreased CD4+ cells and increased CD8 cells -lymphadenopathy persist throughout the disease process Chronic asymptomatic infection - Ans |>> - Stage prolonged/Clinically silent ( 10 yrs or more) - Anti-HIV antibodies are produced (HIV-positive) - virus begins active replication (CD4+ cells are destroyed, viral load increases, dramatic loss of immunity begins) AIDS - Ans |>> - Characterized by life-threatening opportunistic infections - in stage of HIV infection, without treatment death occurs within five years - all people with AIDS have HIV but not all people with HIV have AIDS Health promotion and disease prevention - Ans |>> - Teach how virus is transmitted anyways to prevent infection i.e. condoms, abstinence, avoid sharing needles - encouraging maintaining immunizations including yearly flu and pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV) Assessment - risk factors - Ans |>> Unprotected sex - multiple sex partners - occupational exposure - prenatal exposure - blood transfusions - IV drug use with Contaminated needle -older adults more susceptible to fluid/electrolyte imbalances, malnutrition, skin alterations, wasting syndrome - older women experience vaginal dryness/thinning of vaginal wall, increasing their susceptibility to HIV infection Prof.Exams Assessment - subjective data - Ans |>> Chills, rash, anorexia, nausea, weight-loss, weakness/fatigue, headache/sore throat, night sweats HIV determination - Ans |>> -Positive result from HIV antibody screening test (ELISA) - confirm by positive results from supplemental HIV antibody test(western blot/indirect immunofluorescence) -positive result/report of detectable quantity from the following: HIV nucleic acid detection test(RT-PCR), branched DNA method(bDNA), nucleic acid sequence based assay(NASBA) Diagnostic procedures - Ans |>> - HIV determination - Liver profile, biopsies, testing of stool for parasites - brain or lung MRI or CT scan Brain or long MRI/CT scan - Ans |>> - Detailed image of brain/lung to detect abnormalities Nursing care - Ans |>> - Assess risk factors - monitor fluid intake/urinary output - obtain daily weights to monitor weight-loss - monitor nutritional intake - monitor electrolytes Nursing care continued - Ans |>> - Excess skin integrity - assess pain status - monitor vital signs - assess lung sounds/respiratory status - neurological status - encourage activity altered with rest periods - supplemental oxygen as needed -

Ans |>> Enfuvirtide (fuzeon) Blocks the fusionof HIV with the host cell Entry inhibitors - Ans |>> Maraviroc(selzentry) Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) - Ans |>> Zidovudine(Retrovir) Interfere with the viruses ability to convert RNA to DNA Non- nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) - Ans |>> Delavirdine(Rescriptor) Efavirenz(sustiva) Prof.Exams Inhibit viral replication in cells Protease inhibitors - Ans |>> Atazanavur(reyataz) Nelfinavir(viracept) Saquinavir(invirase) Indinavir(crixivan) Inhibit an enzyme needed for the virus to replicate Integrase inhibitors - Ans |>> Raltegravir(isrentress) Antineoplastic medication - Ans |>> Interleukin (interferon) Immunostimulant that enhances the immune response and reduces the production of cancer cells (used commonly with Kaposi's sarcoma) Nursing considerations - Ans |>> - Monitor lab results - CBC, WBC, liver function tests - Antiretrovirals medications may increase: alanine aminotransferase (ALT) Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) Bilirubin Mean corpuscular volume (MCV) High density lipoprotein (HDLs) Total cholesterol and triglycerides Client education -
