Chapter 16 Care of the Patient with HIV/AIDS Mosby items and derived items © 2011, 2007 by Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. Nursing and the History of HIV 1979- physicians in New York and California were noting cases of Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia (PCP) and Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS). PCP-an unusual pulmonary disease caused by fungus and primarily associated with people who have suppressed immune systems. Kaposi’s-rare cancer of the skin and mucous membranes characterized by red, blue, purple raised lesions These two diseases were occurring at alarming rates in homosexual men whose immune systems were failing. Nursing and the History of HIV June 1981 – CDC reported a HIV epidemic including hemopheliacs, drug users, heterosexual and homosexual patients The cases of HIV infection and AIDS increased rapidly through the 1980s Nursing and the History of HIV In 1986 the virus was named the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and two viruses were identified: HIV-1(found throughout the world and responsible for the majority of HIV infection cases) and HIV-2 (found primarily in West Africa) less progressive onset Nursing and History of HIV 1987- CDC reported three cases of occupationally acquired HIV infection in health care providers. “Universal Blood and Body Fluid Precautions” guidelines were then developed for the prevention of occupational exposure.

Slide 5 Trends HIV infections Although infection rates initially declined from 1983-1996, they now remain the same due to many feeling HIV is a chronic/treatable disease and increased high-risk behaviors. African-Americans are estimated to have an incidence rate of new HIV infections that is eight times higher than that of Caucasians Women account for 25% of HIV infections HIV Timeline Transmission of HIV Transmission occurs through sexual practice not preference Worldwide sexual intercourse most common mode of transmission but in US ½ new HIV cases related to injection use Transmitted from human to human Blood Semen Cervicovaginal Breast milk secretions Transmission of HIV HIV is an obligate virus It cannot survive very long outside of the human body Transmitted Infected Vaginal person-to-person through blood secretions Semen Breast Or milk body fluids containing blood Transmission of HIV Other body fluids contain HIV; no evidence they are capable of transmission Saliva Urine Tears Feces 3 Most Common Modes of Transmission of HIV Sexual transmission Anal or vaginal intercourse Parenteral exposure Contaminated drug injecting equipment and paraphernalia Transfusion of blood and blood products (rare) Perinatal (vertical) transmission Transmission from mother to child May occur during pregnancy, delivery, or postpartum breastfeeding HIV Transmission Once infected, individual is capable of transmitting to others at any time throughout the disease spectrum Even when host appears healthy and symptom free Viral load (amount of HIV is blood) is highest immediately after infection and during later stages of disease During these stages, unprotected exposure to infected individual increases likelihood transmission will occur But can still occur during any time in the disease spectrum Sexual Transmission Most common mode of transmission Some individuals become infected after one encounter Others remain free from infection after hundreds of encounters Receptive anal intercourse most risky behavior Rectum is tighter and less lubricated; may become torn and provide portal for virus to enter bloodstream Other factors increasing risk STI can increase risk of transmission through an STI-related lesion Sexual Transmission Females have a greater risk for becoming infected because the vagina has a greater area of mucous membranes than the penis And there is a greater amount of HIV found in semen compared with vaginal secretions Copyright © 2013, 2009, 2005 Mosby, Inc., an imprint of Elsevier Inc.

Slide 14 Parenteral Transmission Injecting Drug Use Exposure to injecting equipment and paraphernalia Not limited to illicit drug use; injectable steroids, vitamins, and insulin Additional factors include poor nutrition, hygiene, impaired judgment, Increased risk for Hep B and C, other blood borne illnesses Syringe exchange program availability for persons unable to stop – new sterile syringes and needles Parental Transmission Autologous (one’s own blood) blood transfusion is the safest to prevent HIV infection. . There is a 1 in 1.8 million units chance of HIV transmission from donated blood that is infected but has not yet had time to develop antibodies Copyright © 2013, 2009, 2005 Mosby, Inc., an imprint of Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Slide 16 Occupational Exposure Occupational HIV transmission is RARE Most infections occur after needlestick injury but risk of contracting HIV is low; about 0.3%. Postexposure to antiviral therapy given to health care workers after documented exposure can result in severe hepatitis and liver transplant. Perinatal Exposure Transmission of infection from mother to infant during pregnancy or through breastmilk 30% infected mothers will transmit HIV to their infants Approximately 50%-70% of the transmissions will occur late in utero or intrapartum Recommended testing during pregnancy Question The physician asks the nurse to talk with a patient about how HIV is transmitted. Which route of transmission should be discussed? 1. Receiving blood, donating blood 2. Food, water and air 3. Sexual intercourse, sharing needles, mother-tochild transmission 4. Dirty toilets, swimming pools, mosquitoes Answer 3. Sexual intercourse, sharing needles and motherto-child transmission Transmission of HIV Pathophysiology Normal immune response Foreign B antigens interact with B cells cells initiate antibody development B cells and T cells initiate cellular immune response B cells reduce virus in blood T cells reduce virus in lymph nodes Pathophysiology Infection with HIV causes destruction of immune cells “Slow” (long time passes before s/s appear) retrovirus (only has ribonucleic acid – RNA for genetic material) T-cells or CD4+ lymphocytes are the primary targets for HIV infection Because CD4 and T lymphocytes orchestrate all immune functions, HIV’s attack on these cells result in progressive impairment of the body’s immune response Spectrum of HIV Initial exposure Primary HIV infection Flu-like symptoms Develop antibodies to HIV 3 – 6 months after infection HIV seropositivity (seroconversion) Positive 95% HIV antibody test within 3 months; 99% within 6 months HIV Spectrum of HIV Early HIV disease – Clinical latency stage – Symptom-free period Signs and symptoms may not appear until 8 to 12 years after exposure The virus remains in the lymph nodes, liver and spleen and reproduces One in six persons do not know they are infected with the virus Spectrum of HIV Early symptomatic disease CD4+ cell count drops below 500 cells/mcL Persistent, unexplained fevers Drenching night sweats Chronic diarrhea Headaches Fatigue Lymphadenopathy (swollen lymph nodes) Recurrent or localized infections Neurological manifestations (memory impairment, leg weakness, loss of balance) THRUSH most common Diagnostic Studies HIV antibody testing ELISA Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay Detects the presence of HIV antibodies If positive, ELISA is done a second time Western blot Done if second ELISA is positive More sensitive than ELISA Diagnosis and Testing Diagnostic Studies CD4+ lymphocyte count Normally 600 to 1200 mcL Decreases as the disease progresses Best marker for the immunodeficiency associated with HIV infection Viral load monitoring Level of virus in the blood Provides significant information toward predicting the course of the disease Diagnostic Studies Seropositive All three tests are positive (ELISA 2 and Western blot) Does NOT mean the person has AIDS Seronegative Not an assurance that an individual is free from HIV infection Seroconversion may not have occurred yet Figure 16-1 Viral load in the blood and the relationship to CD4 lymphocyte cell count over the spectrum of HIV disease. HIV viral load Question The purpose of doing a viral load study every 3 to 4 months in the HIV positive person is to determine: 1. the CD4 count 2. the progression of the disease 3. monitor immunosuppression levels 4. the results of the Western blot test Answer 2. the progression of the disease Viral load monitoring shows the level of virus in the blood, provides significant information toward predicting the course of the disease Spectrum of HIV Infection AIDS The end-stage, or terminal, phase of the HIV infection HIV positive and CD4+ (T4) count below 200 or one or more AIDSindicator conditions Therapeutic Management Therapeutic management focus Monitoring HIV disease progression and immune function Preventing the development of opportunistic diseases Initiating and monitoring antiretroviral therapy Detecting and treating opportunistic diseases Managing symptoms Preventing complications of treatment HIV management Therapeutic Management Pharmacological management Most common opportunistic diseases associated with HIV Pneumocystis jiroveci (formerly carinii) pneumonia (PCP) Most common infection Symptoms Fever;
