Ruth Hennessy, Psychology Unit Manager/Senior Clinical Psychologist, Albion Street Centre
In response to the gaps in the 2006 NSW Health Domestic Violence Screening Policy, Albion Street Centre developed a research project to explore clients’ experience of DV, helpseeking behaviours and whether HIV was a factor in any abuse experienced.
Anonymous surveys were completed by 102 clients attending the Albion Street Centre, over two separate four week periods. This
podium presentation will report the findings of the survey and contribute to improving health care worker’s understanding of
DV and SSDV within HIV positive clients’ relationships.
An overview of the design, process, results and recommendations of the recent sero conversion study by the National Centre in HIV Epidemiology and Clinical Research, the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society, and the National Centre in HIV Social Research.

HIV Nursing and Home & Community Care Conference griehl
This joint presentation by Susann Nasewich and Greg Riehl will describe HIV Nursing as it relates to pre and post test counseling, and what is important to know for home and community care nurses and aides.
This workshop is designed to talk about the impact of STDs on youth under the age of 25. This workshop will discuss the importance of sexual health screenings, partner management, and current data around STD morbidity rates. We will also talk about current STD clinical recommendations for the treatment of gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis. Participants will engage in an interactive activity where they will sharpen their skills on effective partner management strategies.
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.
Antiretroviral therapy for pregnant women living with HIV or hepatitis B: Wha...Health Evidence™
Health Evidence™ hosted a 90 minute webinar examining the effect of antiretroviral therapy for pregnant women living with HIV or hepatitis B. Click here for access to the audio recording for this webinar: https://youtu.be/91moFmIoI3w
Dr. Reed A.C. Siemieniuk, MD, PhD(c), Department of Medicine, University of Toronto, Department of Health Research Methods, Evidence, and Impact, McMaster University led the session and presented findings from their recent systematic review:
Siemieniuk R, Foroutan F, Mirza R, Mah Ming J, Alexander PE, Agarwal A, et al. (2017). Antiretroviral therapy for pregnant women living with HIV or hepatitis B: A systematic review and meta-analysis. BMJ Open, 7(9), e019022.
This review assesses the impact of various antiretroviral/antiviral regimens in pregnant women living with HIV or hepatitis B virus (HBV). Forty-three studies were included in the review. The most common comparison was tenofovir and emtricitabine versus zidovudine and lamivudine. There was no apparent difference between tenofovir-based regimens and alternatives in maternal outcomes, including serious laboratory adverse events and serious clinical adverse events. There was no difference between NRTIs in vertical transmission of HIV or vertical transmission of HBV. We found moderate certainty evidence that tenofovir/emtricitabine increases the risk of stillbirths and early neonatal mortality and the risk of early premature delivery at less than 34 weeks. Tenofovir/emtricitabine is likely to increase stillbirth/early neonatal death and early premature delivery compared with zidovudine/lamivudine, but certainty is low when they are not coprescribed with lopinavir/ritonavir. Other outcomes are likely similar between antiretrovirals.
Lyuba Lytvyn, MSc, PhD(c), Department of Health Research Methods, Evidence, and Impact, McMaster University also briefly presented the findings from their linked systematic review on values and preferences of pregnant women with HIV:

Fast-track the end of AIDS in the EU - practical evidence-based interventions.
Presentation by: Karen Champenois, Maison Blanche Hospital, Paris
In a two-day meeting under the auspices of the Maltese Presidency of the Council of the European Union (30-31 January 2017), HIV experts from across the European Union discussed how to reverse this trend and how to prepare Europe to achieve the set target of ending AIDS by 2030.
At the end of the session patient/family champions as well as health authorities will understand different approaches to patient engagement in patient safety and quality committees (e.g. dealing with incident reporting, root cause analysis, developing policies and procedures) and how patient engagement impacted patient safety and quality outcomes. The participants and presenters are invited to present examples, tools, and leading practices so the participants will leave with at least one practical idea to implement.
