Exposure to HIV in the United States

About This Presentation
These slides were developed using the January
2005 recommendations. The intended audience
is clinicians involved in the care of patients with
HIV.
Users are cautioned that, because of the rapidly
changing field of HIV care, this information
could become out of date quickly. Finally, it is
intended that these slides be used as prepared,
without changes in either content or attribution.
Users are asked to honor this intent.

Evidence of Possible Risks from
nPEP (2)
Impact on risk-reduction behaviors

Selection of resistant virus

Evaluation of Persons Seeking nPEP
HIV status of person seeking nPEP
Perform HIV baseline testing on persons
seeking nPEP; use rapid test if possible
Time and frequency of exposure
nPEP is less likely to be effective >72 hours
postexposure
nPEP should be used infrequently
March 2008
AETC National Resource Center, www.aidsetc.org
Evaluation of Persons Seeking nPEP:
HIV Status of Source
HIV status of source: HIV positive
Consider nPEP if within 72 hours of exposure
When possible, interview source to determine
ARV use and most recent viral load
HIV status of source: Unknown
Determine whether source is available for
testing
If source is from group with high prevalence of
HIV infection, risk of transmission might be
increased
Do not delay initiation of nPEP for source testing

Transmission Risk from the Exposure
Determine the specific sexual, injection
drug use, or other behavior that led
person to seek nPEP (see Estimated
Per-Act Risk by Exposure Route)
Determine relative risk for HIV exposure
using algorithm for evaluation and
treatment and per-act risk for acquisition
of HIV

Assessing Risk of HIV Exposure
Substantial Risk
of HIV Exposure
Exposure of:
vagina, rectum, eye, mouth or
other mucous membrane, nonintact
skin, or percutaneous contact
With:
blood, semen, vaginal secretions,
rectal secretions, breast milk, or any
body fluid that is visibly
contaminated with blood
When the source is
known to be HIV infected
March 2008
Negligible Risk
of HIV Exposure
Exposure of:
vagina, rectum, eye, mouth or
other mucous membrane, intact or
nonintact skin, or percutaneous
contact
With:
urine, nasal secretions, saliva,
sweat, or tears if not visibly
contaminated with blood
Regardless of the known or
suspected HIV status
of the source
AETC National Resource Center, www.aidsetc.org
Preferred ARV Regimens for nPEP
NNRTI based
EFV + (3TC or FTC) + (ZDV or
TDF) for 28 days
Do not administer EFV to pregnant
women
PI based
LPV/RTV (Kaletra) + (3TC or FTC)
+ ZDV for 28 days
March 2008
AETC National Resource Center, www.aidsetc.org
Considerations for All Patients Treated
with nPEP
Use starter packs
Clinicians not experienced using ART should
consult with ID or other HIV-care specialists
Facilitate adherence
Monitor for signs and symptoms associated with
acute infection
Follow-up HIV tests at 4-6 weeks, 3 months, and
6 months to determine whether infection has
occurred
Screening for STDs, hepatitis B and C, and
pregnancy should be offered
HIV prevention counseling
Reporting and confidentiality
