Template:HIV post-exposure by wound
Percutaneous Injuries
Superficial wound or solid needle
- If HIV+ source asymptomatic or if viral load <15000 RNA/mL give basic regimen
- If HIV+ with AIDS, acute seroconversion or high viral load give expanded regimen
- If HIV status unknown then no PEP (consider PEP if possible HIV risk from source)
Deep wound or hollow needle
- If HIV+ source asymptomatic or if viral load <15000 RNA/mL give expanded regimen
- If HIV+ with AIDS, acute seroconversion or high viral load give expanded regimen
- If HIV status unknown then no PEP (consider PEP if possible HIV risk from source)
Mucous Membrane Exposure
Small volume (few drops)
- If HIV+ source asymptomatic or if viral load <15000 RNA/mL consider basic regimen
- If HIV+ with AIDS, acute seroconversion or high viral load give basic regimen
- If HIV status unknown then no PEP (consider PEP if possible HIV risk from source)
Large volume (splash)
- If HIV+ source asymptomatic or if viral load <15000 RNA/mL give basic regimen
- If HIV+ with AIDS, acute seroconversion or high viral load give expanded regimen
- If HIV status unknown then no PEP (consider PEP if possible HIV risk from source)
