This book addresses several important aspects of HIV/AIDS care and treatment in a concise, accessible format; it is not meant to be a comprehensive reference book. Recommended references and citations are provided for the reader to be able to access in-depth information on topics that are particularly important and/or controversial. Appropriate use of antiretroviral drugs, treatment of opportunistic infections, symptom management, treatment of concurrent medical conditions, and other specific interventions to treat HIV disease and its complications are addressed. Recognizing the broader array of best practices that contribute to effective clinical outcomes among patients with a complex array of service needs, the authors also address patient evaluation, adherence, mental health, substance abuse, overall clinic management, and other factors that lead to improved patient outcomes according to the Chronic Care Model.

People with HIV/AIDS can live longer, healthier lives because of advances in treatment of HIV infection. However, longer lives are associated with increased prevalence of 1) adverse effects of HIV infection, 2) adverse effects of the drugs used to treat HIV, and 3) concurrent medical conditions that would occur in the absence of HIV. These long-term complications have put HIV infection in the realm of chronic diseases rather than of infectious diseases, which usually respond to short-term clinical interventions. Effective management of chronic diseases in the primary care setting requires the coordination of interventions that occur at the level of the clinical services, the community supports for those clinical services, and the individual patient. While clinical services begin in the primary care clinic, community supports are needed, and the patient must be engaged to enhance self-management. The coordinated interventions together contribute to the desired clinical outcomes. The Chronic Care Model, which is used in the design and quality improvement activities of clinical services, conceptualizes how these factors impact the clinical outcome of chronic disease management. This book addresses several important aspects of HIV/AIDS care and treatment in a concise, accessible format; it is not meant to be a comprehensive reference book. Recommended references and citations are provided for the reader to be able to access in-depth information on topics that are particularly important and/or controversial. Appropriate use of antiretroviral drugs, treatment of opportunistic infections, symptom management, treatment of concurrent medical conditions, and other specific interventions to treat HIV disease and its complications are addressed. The format of this guide is designed to provide practical information for the common questions that arise in the care of patients with HIV infection. Recognizing the broader array of best practices that contribute to effective clinical outcomes among patients with a complex array of service needs, the authors also address patient evaluation, adherence, mental health, substance abuse, overall clinic management, and other factors that lead to improved patient outcomes according to the Chronic Care Model. Last, because the authors recognize the challenges of maintaining clinical practices in the face of rapidly changing and ever more complex treatment interventions, a chapter on sources for updated and in-depth clinical information is provided. Pediatric HIV/AIDS treatment is not addressed in this book.

This document is provided as an information resource for physicians and other health care professionals to guide them in the appropriate treatment of patients with HIV/AIDS. Recommendations for care and treatment change rapidly, and opinions can be controversial; therefore, physicians and other health care professionals are encouraged to consult other sources, especially manufacturers' package inserts, and confirm the information contained in these tables. The individual physician or other health care professional should use his/her best medical judgment in determining appropriate patient care or treatment because no single reference or service can take the place of medical training, education, and experience. Determination of appropriate treatment is the responsibility of the treating physician

This comprehensive volume represents the collective efforts of twenty five of the Florida/Caribbean AIDS Education and Training Center (AETC) faculty as well as thirty seven guest authors. The impressive faculty represents a diverse group of HIV care providers. The guide is organized into six sections covering HIV and AIDS care and treatment of the child, adolescent, and adult. The text is targeted for the front-line clinician and is designed to allow for the rapid identification of practical treatment information. Recognizing that rapid changes occur in this field the reader is encouraged to consult with their local experts or research the literature for the most up to date information to assist in individual treatment decisions for their patient. The success of antiretroviral therapy is resulting in not only an improved quality of life, but also an improved life expectancy for our patients. With these changes come new challenges. Clinicians are pressed to better manage the primary care needs of their patients. Complications of medication therapies need to be evaluated and treated, as do problems associated with the aging of our patients such as hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, etc. As more medications are required, closer observation is needed to prevent serious drug interactions. The complexity of care required to manage our HIV patients requires not only attention to detail but also a commitment to remain up to date in this rapidly changing field of medicine. In this decade, great gratification is achieved witnessing the advancements made in medication therapy and the benefits to our patients.
