New therapies have changed the way doctors care for people with HIV and have shifted treatment strategies to the outpatient setting. This concise, yet comprehensive book is designed to give primary care providers practical information on the diagnosis and management of patients infected with HIV.
Divided into three logical sections, it covers useful background information about the virus and the disease, as well as all the basic clinical topics that are vital for the diagnosis and management of HIV infection and its complications, from early stages of HIV infection through advanced, fullblown AIDS.
