MANAGEMENT OF HIV/AIDS [VIDEORECORDING]
Kerkering, T. M..
NCME ; no. 856: 1
DVD (60 min.) : sd., col. ; 4 3/4 in. + 1
CD-ROM (4 3/4 in.).
'Today, almost 1 million Americans are
infected with HIV, yet one quarter of these
individuals are unaware that they have the
infection and are at risk of infecting
others. Of those with newly diagnosed HIV
infection, 41% discover that they are HIV
positive less than a year before they
develop AIDS, indicating that these
patients harbored an undetected HIV
infection for years before being diagnosed.
Fortunately, HIV antibody tests are now
available, making "point of care" testing
possible. In addition, as a result of
advances in treatment over the past decade,
AIDS has gone from being a terminal illness
to a chronic, long-term medical condition.
In this video program, Dr. Kerkering
provides primary care provider--generally
the first point of contact for patients
with HIV/AIDSwith timely, practical
information about diagnosing and managing
patients with HIV/AIDS.'
