LAM test as a diagnostic aid in patients with HIV and suspected tuberculosis: technical guidelines
La Profilaxis Post-Exposición para el VIH (PEP) constituye una herramienta de prevención que consiste en el uso de medicamentos antiretrovirales para reducir el riesgo de infección luego de situaciones de potencial exposición del virus. Su incorporación está recomendada por la Organización Mu...ndial de la Salud en el marco de una estrategia de Prevención Combinada1,2. Cuando se inicia dentro de las 72 horas del episodio de potencial exposición al VIH, la PEP reduce en forma significativa el riesgo de transmisión, por lo que su uso se indica en exposiciones ocupacionales y no ocupacionales esporádicas.
