The Operations manual provides guidance on planning and delivering HIV prevention, care, and treatment services at health centres in countries with high HIV prevalence. It provides an operational framework to ensure that HIV services can be provided in an integrated, efficient and quality-assured manner. The manual is based on the public health approach to scaling-up HIV services in resource-constrained settings, which includes simple, standardized regimens and formularies; standardized supervision and patient monitoring approaches; as well as integrated delivery of care at primary health centres within a district network. Decentralization of services to health centre and community level is facilitated with the public health approach. This manual supports efforts to deliver and scale up HIV prevention interventions including provider-initiated testing and counselling, prevention of mother-to-child transmission, prevention of HIV and TB transmission and prevention of disease progression in HIV infected individuals. The Operations manual deals with environmental health, logistic, managerial and infrastructure requirements for delivery of the essential HIV and primary care services as laid out in clinical guidelines such as country-adapted WHO IMAI, IMCI and IMPAC guidelines or other national clinical guidelines for provision of acute and chronic HIV care. This manual is written as a learning aid and job aid for the health centre team, and in particular the health centre manager (often an in-charge nurse). Specific chapters may be particularly useful for those with tasks such as managing the supplies, providing laboratory services, or managing patient records, registers and reports. During country adaptation, some content may be presented as wall charts or used to develop standard operating procedures for various services or specific types of patients. District management teams, which supervise and support health centre services, should also find this manual helpful, as should national Ministries of Health and other partners responsible for planning and supporting the decentralization of HIV services.

These consolidated guidelines on HIV prevention, testing, treatment, service delivery and monitoring bring together existing and new clinical and programmatic recommendations across different ages, populations and settings, bringing together all relevant WHO guidance on HIV produced since 2016. It serves as an update to the previous edition of the consolidated guidelines on HIV. These guidelines continue to be structured along the continuum of HIV care. Information on new combination prevention approaches, HIV testing, ARV regimens and treatment monitoring are included. There is a new chapter on advanced HIV disease that integrates updated guidance on the management of important HIV comorbidities, including cryptococcal disease, histoplasmosis and tuberculosis. The chapter on general HIV care, contains a new section on palliative care and pain management, and up to date information on treatment of several neglected tropical diseases, such as visceral leishmaniasis and Buruli ulcer. New recommendations for screening and treating of cervical pre-cancer lesions in women living with HIV are also addressed in this chapter. Guidance on service delivery was expanded to help the implementation and strengthening the HIV care cascade. Importantly, this guidance emphasizes the need for differentiated approaches to care for people who are established on ART, such as reduced frequency of clinic visits, use of multi-month drug dispensing and implementation of community ART distribution. The adoption of these efficiencies is essential to improve the quality of care of people receiving treatment and reduce the burden on health facilities, particularly in resource limited settings.

These guidelines provide guidance on the diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, the use of antiretroviral (ARV) drugs for treating and preventing HIV infection and the care of people living with HIV. They are structured along the continuum of HIV testing, prevention, treatment and care.

It is being published in a changing global context for HIV and for health more broadly.

AIDS is the most important threat to health facing the 21st century. The economic, social and human tragedy of AIDS is being experienced by families and communities throughout the world. Effective treatments are inaccessible to most people and vaccines remain a distant prospect. Health education to tackle ignorance, fight prejudice and empower communities to change behaviour is the most important way to contain the disease. This book introduces the disease, its origins, symptoms and methods of transmission. It should be helpful both as a guide to understanding and reducing your own risks, as well as for carrying out AIDS education to family and community. It provides all those involved in community work with a thorough knowledge of the symptoms and progression of the disease so that they can be confident to counsel both those already infected and the rest of the community. The book gives guidance in counselling and care of those wwith AIDS and HIV and lays out a comprehensive and practical action plan for running an AIDS prevention programme to reach all sections of the community.

Increased HIV screening may help identify more people with the disease, but there may not be enough resources to provide them with the care they need. The Institute of Medicine's Committee on HIV Screening and Access to Care concludes that more practitioners must be trained in HIV/AIDS care and treatment and their hospitals, clinics, and health departments must receive sufficient funding to meet a growing demand for care.
