The document discusses HIV/AIDS, including how HIV infects and damages white blood cells called CD4 cells, eventually leading to AIDS. It describes the window period after infection when antibodies are not yet detectable, acute seroconversion illness, and the asymptomatic phase. It also discusses modes of HIV transmission, testing methods, prevention methods like post-exposure prophylaxis and medications during pregnancy, lifelong antiretroviral treatment for HIV-positive individuals, and the importance of counseling and support. Currently there is no cure for HIV, but prevention and treatment can prolong life and improve quality of life.

HIV PPT
HIV attacks and destroys CD4 cells of the immune system, weakening the body's ability to fight infections and diseases. Over many years without treatment, HIV can develop into AIDS. AIDS is the advanced stage of HIV infection where the immune system is severely damaged, leaving the body vulnerable to other life-threatening illnesses. HIV is transmitted through bodily fluids like semen, vaginal fluids, blood, and breastmilk, so activities like unprotected sex and sharing needles carry risk. While treatments can suppress HIV and prevent progression to AIDS, there is currently no cure.

This document discusses counseling challenges and best practices for newly diagnosed HIV patients in Malaysia. It outlines the many psychological hurdles patients face post-diagnosis, from denial and depression to concerns about treatment and disclosure. Effective counseling is crucial for addressing individual barriers, providing support, and ensuring treatment adherence. The ideal counselor has knowledge about HIV as well as counseling skills, a non-judgmental attitude, and understands their own limitations. Several hospitals in Malaysia have implemented successful peer support programs through partnerships between medical staff and community organizations.
Presentation of njabulo dladla 3
This presentation provides information about HIV/AIDS for 10th grade students. It defines HIV and AIDS, explaining that HIV weakens the immune system while AIDS develops as the immune system becomes deficient. HIV is spread through unprotected sex, sharing needles, or from mother to child during birth. Testing checks for HIV antibodies and viral load monitoring is used for treatment. Symptoms range from early flu-like symptoms to later conditions resulting from immune deficiency. Prevention methods include abstinence, condoms, not sharing needles, and universal precautions. The effects of AIDS include stress, poverty if the infected cannot work, and increased orphan rates.
What are the precautionary measures for Human Immunodeficiency Virus?
A virus that attacks the immune system, the natural defense system of our body is what we consider as Human Immunodeficiency Virus. This is the one which kills the cells of the body. Here we will have a complete analysis of what this disease and also the reasons for spreading of the disease and how adversely this affects our body, along with all its possible precautions.
Acquired immune deficiency syndrome
The document outlines the chain of HIV infection, including that HIV is transmitted through direct contact with infected blood or bodily fluids. It also discusses that while there is no cure for HIV, treatment with antiretroviral drugs can enable those infected to live long, healthy lives by suppressing the virus. Key aspects of treatment include starting post-exposure prophylaxis within 72 hours of potential exposure, monitoring viral levels before starting lifelong antiretroviral therapy, and maintaining low viral loads to prevent transmission. Prevention efforts focus on education and reducing risk behaviors.
Hfle presentation
HIV/AIDS damages the immune system over time and is caused by the HIV virus. It is spread through unprotected sex, contaminated blood transfusions, sharing needles, and from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding. Symptoms of HIV/AIDS range from flu-like symptoms in early stages to infections and weight loss in later stages. HIV/AIDS affects society by impacting families, health systems, businesses, and education. Preventative measures include education, regular testing, monogamy, condom use, treatment during pregnancy/childbirth, avoiding breastfeeding or needle sharing.

Basic facts about HIV/AIDS
HIV weakens the immune system by attacking CD4 cells, which are important for fighting infection. Over time, this damage allows opportunistic infections associated with AIDS to affect the body. HIV is transmitted through unprotected sex, contaminated blood, and from mother to child. While there is no cure for HIV/AIDS, antiretroviral treatment can slow its progression and improve quality of life. Prevention focuses on protected sex, safe medical practices, and treating other infections promptly.
Aids
The document defines AIDS as Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, caused by the HIV virus which weakens the immune system over time. It is transmitted through sexual contact, sharing needles, or from mother to child during birth. Having HIV is not the same as having AIDS, as HIV can be present for years without symptoms. AIDS is diagnosed when the immune system is seriously damaged, allowing opportunistic infections. While there is no cure for AIDS, treatment drugs can slow the virus and related damage to prolong life.
HIV
HIV attacks and destroys cells of the immune system, specifically CD4+ T cells, weakening the body's ability to fight infections and disease. Over time, HIV can lead to AIDS if not treated. HIV is transmitted through contact with infected bodily fluids like blood, semen, vaginal fluids. Common symptoms of HIV infection include fever, sore throat, rash, fatigue, and swollen lymph nodes. While there is no cure for HIV, antiretroviral treatment can suppress the virus and prevent progression to AIDS, allowing those infected to live long and healthy lives.
Presentation HIV 4 Skin practitioners
HIV is a virus that attacks the immune system and can lead to AIDS if left untreated. AIDS is the late stage of HIV infection defined by a weakened immune system. While HIV used to be a death sentence, antiretroviral treatment now allows people to live long lives with the virus. HIV is transmitted through bodily fluids and testing is available, though many people initially show no symptoms. Successful treatment prevents progression to AIDS and also reduces transmission risk.
Hiv and aids
This document discusses HIV and AIDS. It defines HIV as a virus and AIDS as a medical condition that can develop from HIV infection over time without treatment. It describes the causes and transmission of HIV, including through unprotected sex, blood transmission, and from mother to child during pregnancy or birth. The document outlines the symptoms of early HIV infection, asymptomatic HIV, and late-stage HIV/AIDS. It also discusses diagnosis of HIV through blood tests, treatments to slow the virus, and prevention methods.
SayaPositif_Eng
This document discusses HIV/AIDS in three main points:
1) HIV/AIDS is a treatable illness and people can still live long, fulfilling lives with proper treatment and care.
2) It is important to get tested for HIV so one can get immediate treatment if positive and prevent transmission. The virus is only transmitted through blood and certain body fluids.
3) Stigma and discrimination against those living with HIV/AIDS causes negative consequences and is a violation of human rights. Efforts are needed to end stigma in our communities and treat all people with dignity.

HIV/AIDS
HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. AIDS is a result of the development of the HIV virus into a more serious condition. AIDS was first recognised by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 1981 and its cause, HIV, identified in the early 1980s.
Understanding HIV
HIV is a contagious infection which attacks the immune system, reducing its effectiveness and leaving the body susceptible to infections. The HIV infection damages the cells the body needs to fight illnesses. AIDS can be diagnosed when the number of immune system cells (CD4 cells) in the blood of a person with HIV drops below a certain level.
There is no cure for HIV or AIDS, but there are treatments that can slow down the disease, and help prevent the onset of AIDS. It takes around ten years for someone with HIV to develop AIDS, but it can be prevented with early detection and treatment of the HIV

Hiv aids
1. HIV is a virus that causes AIDS by attacking lymphocytes and weakening the immune system. AIDS develops when immunity is destroyed, leaving the body vulnerable to infections.
2. HIV is transmitted through certain body fluids like blood, semen, vaginal fluids from an infected person. The most common ways of transmission are unprotected sex, sharing needles, infected blood transfusions, and from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth or breastfeeding.
3. There is currently no cure for HIV/AIDS but improved medical treatments can manage the infection. Getting tested is the only way to know one's HIV status.

HIV, AIDS AND STD's
HIV
HIV stands for human immunity deficiency virus. HIV weakens the body immune system by entering into white blood cell (lymphocytes) and binds itself to chromosome and integrates into the genetic material. The virus now multiplies very fast using genetic materials of White Blood Cells. The daughter virus invades White Blood Cells destroy and kill them. As more White Blood Cells are killed the body becomes less and less fight against disease. Patient with aids are prone to opportunistic infection caused by fungi, bacteria and protozoa.
In nutshell people with AIDS die with disease their body cannot resist. These diseases are referred to as opportunistic infection. E.g. tuberculosis, severe diarrhea, skin cancer and pneumonia.
AIDS
AIDS stand for; Acquire Immune Deficiency Syndrome. For someone with AIDS T-helper fall below.
the T-helper count for health person range between 450 and 1200
CAUSES
AIDS is viral infection caused by a strain of a virus called HIV. HIV means Human Immunodeficiency Virus. HIV mainly found in body fluids such as blood, semen and vaginal secretion. Also traces of HIV found on saliva, tear and sweat
Primary stage (window stage) : It does not show any symptoms except for slight flu HIV test result is negative
A-symptomatic stage : Has no symptoms but the HIV test is positive
Full blown aids : Where by one gets various opportunistic infections and diseases
SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTION
These are infection, which are transmitted through sexually contact during sexually intercourse. Sexually transmitted disease are also referred to as venereal disease
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HIV, AIDS AND STD’s
HIV is sexually transmitted. Having STD's can increase risk of acquiring and transmitting HIV.
Some STI’s such as chlamydia cause open sores in the skin and become exit point into and from the brood stream of HIV.

Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)
PID is an infection of the upper female genital tract that is usually caused by sexually transmitted organisms like Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Chlamydia trachomatis. Risk factors include young age, multiple sexual partners, and IUD use. Left untreated, PID can lead to long-term complications like infertility, ectopic pregnancy, and chronic pelvic pain. Diagnosis is based on symptoms and physical exam findings. Treatment involves broad-spectrum antibiotics to eliminate the infection as well as prevent complications. Hospital admission is recommended for severe cases, pregnant women, or when there is no response to oral antibiotics.
HIV AND AIDS
HIV damages the immune system by infecting and killing CD4 cells. Over time, this leaves the body vulnerable to opportunistic infections and cancers, leading to AIDS. There is no cure for HIV/AIDS, but antiretroviral therapy can manage the virus and prevent progression to AIDS, allowing those infected to live nearly normal lifespans. HIV is transmitted through bodily fluids like blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk.

GROUP 16 HIV..........pptx
This document provides guidelines on when to start antiretroviral therapy (ART) in adults and adolescents living with HIV. It recommends that all HIV-infected individuals start ART as soon as possible for their health and to prevent transmission. A clinical assessment should be performed to determine conditions that will help select an appropriate ART regimen. ART eligibility is based on WHO clinical staging, CD4 count, viral load, and public health considerations. First-line regimens generally consist of two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors plus a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor or integrase strand transfer inhibitor. Important factors for countries adapting WHO guidelines include accessibility, quality of care, equity, efficiency and sustainability. Immune reconstitution

Group-3-HIV-AIDS-pptx.pptx
HIV is a virus that attacks cells in the immune system and weakens it over time. This leaves the body vulnerable to infections and tumors. There are three stages of HIV: acute infection with flu-like symptoms, a long clinical latency stage with no symptoms, and AIDS where the immune system is severely damaged. A diagnosis of HIV is made through antibody, antigen/antibody, or nucleic acid tests. Effective treatment involves antiretroviral therapy which suppresses the virus and allows those infected to live healthy lives.
