Disease Description and Etiology
Definition
HIV is a retrovirus that targets the CD4 cells of the immune
system (the T-Helper cells) and turns them into viral factories for
HIV reproduction
Transmission
The HIV virus is transmitted from person to person via infected
body fluids. This includes sexual contact, infected needles,
blood transfusions and mother to child.
AIDS is the advanced manifestation of HIV that has the
potential to make a person vulnerable to opportunistic
infections
Diagnosis of HIV and AIDS
Diagnostic tests
ELISA - Enzyme Linked Immunoabsorbant Assay
Western Blot
IFA- Indirect Immunoflorescent Antibody
RIPA - Radio Immunoprecipitation
PCR - Polymerase Chain Reaction
Alternative diagnostic tools
Urine and oral fluid tests
Finger prick
CDC Clinical and Immune Cell Categoies
of HIV Infection
Categories
Sample Criteria
Primary HIV Infection
Acute retroviral syndrome, but no complicating opportunistic infection or immune
dysfunction
Clinical Stage 1
Primarily asymptomatic as above, possible persistent generalized lympadenopathy
Clinical Stage 2
Weight losses that are <10% of body weight, herpes zoster, minor mucocutaneous
manifestations, recurrent bacterial upper respiratory tract infections, fungal infections of
fingers, papular pruritic eruptions, or seborrhoeic dermatitis
Clinical Stage 3
Weight loss of >10% of body weight, persistent constitutional symptoms (fever, diarrhea),
oral candidiasis or hairy leukoplakia, acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis or necrotizing
ulcerative periodontitis, pulmonary tuberculosis, severe bacterial infections, unexplained
anemia, neutropenia and or thrombocytopenia for more than a month (confirmatory
testing is required for anemias)
Clinical Stage 4
HIV wasting syndrome (>10% weight loss with chronic diarrhea, weakness, fever),
opportunistic events as described in Clinical Category 3 as well as chronic herpes simplex
virus, recurrent severe or radiological bacterial pneumonia, pneumoncystitis pneumonia,
Kaposi’s sarcoma, CMV, cryptosporidiosis, isopsoriasis, any disseminated mycosis (eg.
Coccidiomycosis, histoplasmosis, penicilliosis) recurrent non-typhoidal salmonella
septicaemia and or lymphoma (cerebral or B cell non Hodgkin)
HIV and AIDS Treatment
There is no cure. Treatment is by symptom management
only.
Treatment includes anti-viral medications, prevention and
treatment of opportunistic infections (OI) and restoration of
nutritional status
Treatment is multi dimensional involving physicians,
dietitians and psychologists
A person’s geno- and phenotype can help determine the
appropriate therapy.
Anti Retro Viral Medications
The goal is to lower the viral load (copies of the virus per ml of
blood)
Medications interrupt the viral life cycle, thus decreasing the spread
from cell to cell within the body.
HAART – Highly Active Anti Retroviral Therapy
Includes 3 or more ARV medications
Side Effects:
Nausea, diarrhea, appetite loss, lipid alterations and glucose
intolerance.
Lipodystrophy
Opportunistic Infections
Examples: Pneumonia, Encephalitis, tuberculosis, Influenza,
HPV, Hepatitis A and B and Malaria
Early detection is important
Vaccines are useful in preventing some infections like HPV
and Hepatitis
AIDS Wasting Syndrome Treatment
Defined as weight loss greater than 10% of body weight
combined with fever or diarrhea for more than 1 month.
Or 7.5% weight loss in 6 months
Megestrol Acetate and Dronabinol are used to increase
appetite and reduce nausea.
Strength building exercise can be used to retain muscle mass
May also be managed with Androgens and Growth Hormones
This hormone therapy is also used to manage lipodystrophy
Alternative Supplements and Oral
Therapies
GINSENG
American ginseng is used for other infections including HIV/AIDS, infections of the
intestine (dysentery), and particular infections (Pseudomonas infections) that are
common in people with cystic fibrosis.
Some people use American ginseng to improve digestion and for loss of appetite, as well
as for vomiting, inflammation of the colon (colitis), and inflammation of the lining of the
stomach (gastritis).
MILK THISTLE
(SILYMARIN)
Silymarin exerts membrane-stabilizing and antioxidant activity, it promotes hepatocyte
regeneration; furthermore it reduces the inflammatory reaction, and inhibits the fibrogenesis
in the live
ECHINACEA
Anti-Cancer, immunostimulatory, may inhibit metabolism of drugs using the cytochrome P
450 enzyme pathway.
ST. JOHNS
WORT
Anti-depressant, anti anxiety, anti HIV, contraindicated with the use of medications processed
by the CYP3A4 and P glycoprotein Pathways, including protease inhibitors and NNRTI’s,
reduced effectiveness of oral contraceptives, antagonistic to antihypertensive medications

Patient Diagnosis
1) Unintentional weight loss (NC-3.2) related to HIV/Aids,
difficulty swallowing and inadequate caloric intake as
evidenced by BMI of 19.2, 91% UBW and recent weight loss.
2) Difficulty swallowing (NC-1.1) related to oral thrush as
evidenced by patient’s complaints and 24 hour diet recall.
Stage 3 AIDS with oral thrush.
Patient Intervention and Treatment
Multidisciplinary approach to treatment
Priorities: concern for diabetes, insulin resistance, hepatitis,
renal and pancreatic malfunctions, cardiovascular disease
and osteoporosis
Goals
Prevention of food, drug and supplement interactions
Restoration and maintenance of nutritional status
Management of signs and symptoms
Appetite loss
Diarrhea
Heartburn/reflux
Nausea/vomiting
Oral lesions
Medications/Supplements
Taken By Patient
Supplement
Proposed Use in HIV/AIDS
Potential Risks
Vitamin C
Improve antioxidant capacity, increases iron absorption from nonheme sources
Increases urinary losses of oxalate and
calcium
Vitamin E
May protect against toxicity and sice effects from AZT
(antiretroviral medications)
Can interfere with blood clotting, cause
nausea, diarrhea, muscle weakness fatigue
Ginseng
Anti-stress and anti-fatigue effects, may contain a protein with
anti-HIV activity
Morning diarrhea, insomnia, nervousness,
depression, confusion, skin rashes, high
blood pressure
Milk Thistle
May prevent liver damage caused by ARV medications
Upset stomach, diarrhea, bloating, gas
Echinacea
Anticancer; immuno-stimulatory; promotes CD4 cell activation
May inhibit metabolism of drugs sing the
cytochrome P450 enzyme pathway
Multivitamin
Slows disease progression, increases CD$ count, lowers viral load
values
None
Medication
Proposed Use
Interactions
Efavirenz
Controls HIV infection by decreasing the amount of HIV in the
blood and may decrease chance of developing AIDS and HIV
related illnesses like serious infections or cancer
May interact with products that contain
Kava or St. John’s Wort. Avoid alcohol and
take on an empty stomach
Tenofovir DF
Interferes with HIV replication in the body
High fat meals increase bioavailability.
Avoid alcohol as it can worsens side
effects
Emtricitabine
Inhibits the enzyme that copies HIV RNA into new viral DNA. Can
help lower the amount of HIV in the body and increase the
Avoid alcohol as it can worsen side effects
Physical Activity Recommendations
Exercise known to improve muscle volume and function
Regulates lipid and energy metabolism
For patients with HIV/AIDS may lessen the loss of muscle mass
in wasting conditions.
Recommendations should complement diet prescription
Exercise should include a combination of aerobic and resistance
training.
Medical Nutrition Therapy
As infected cells in the gut increase, there is an increased risk
of malabsorption and malnutrition increase
ARV’s can increase blood lipid levels and inflammation,
diabetes and hypertension can put patients at an increased
risk for cardiovascular diseases.
HIV can affect all body systems causing a variety of
nutritional complications.
Nutrient Requirements
Fluids: 1 ml/kcal = 3 L per day
Calories: 2900 – 3300 actual calculated 2400 calories, but
increase 20-50% due to OI.
Protein: 59 grams based on current body weight, or 145
grams based on 20% of 2900 calories.
Fat: Less than 97 grams of total fat and less than 26 grams
saturated fat.
Vitamin and mineral recommendations based on individual
needs and deficiencies
Goals and Intervention
Goal 1: Increase weight to at least UBW of 160-165 pounds,
with ultimate goal of 184 pounds (ideal body weight).
Intervention 1:Increase caloric intake to at least 2900 calories,
which will allow a weight gain of at least 1 pound/week. Do this by
consuming smaller, more frequent meals, add in protein shakes and
hidden sources of calories.
Goal 2: Alleviate signs and symptoms associated with oral
thrush
Intervention 2: Avoid alcohol, high sugar and yeast foods, and foods
that are hot, spicy, tough, and difficult to chew and swallow.
Sample Diet and Modifications
Breakfast
-Scrambled eggs with hot salsa
-Crisp bacon
-Apple
-Orange juice
Lunch
-Spaghetti with sauce
-White roll
-Chocolate ice cream
Dinner
-Steak and potatoes
-Raw carrot sticks
-Beer
When is Enteral Nutrition Necessary?
Enteral Nutrition may be considered when BMI drops below 18.5
kg/m2
Enteral nutrition may be considered when a weight loss of greater
than 5% occurs in a 3 month period.
Enteral nutrition may be considered when BCM (Body Cell Mass)
decreases by more than 5% in 3 months.
Can be considered if Oral Thrush worsens to the point that patient
is unable to consume adequate nutrition from food sources
Can be considered in malnourished AIDS patients with chronic,
uncontrollable diarrhea.
Education and Counseling
Focus on diet modification and food safety
Provide patient with food/drug and supplement interactions
information and symptom management information
Food safety suggestions
What would you advise?
Monitor and Evaluation
BMI, body composition changes, skin fold measurements
Pertinent lab values: CD4 count, viral load, albumin, glucose,
cholesterol, etc.
Signs and symptoms like diarrhea and fatigue
Development of additional opportunistic infections
Oral thrush, pneumonia, AWS
Evaluate patient’s adherence to diet modifications and
exercise
Prognosis
Weight loss and AWS is not inevitable.
Opportunistic infections and other complications of AIDS will
always affect nutritional status, so nutrition therapy and
continuing education will be important for patient’s entire life
Life expectancy depends on how early patient began ARV,
and how well they are able to prevent nutritional
complications and OI.
Life expectancy is near normal today if disease is properly
managed
