This portable and practical handbook, first published in 2006,
provides a concise guide to the essentials of pediatric HIV care in
a form suitable for doctors in the busy hospital setting. During
recent years, many agents for the treatment and prophylaxis of HIV
infection and the opportunistic infections that accompany HIV
infection have been developed, and many new ways of monitoring HIV
infection in children have been produced. These therapies and
approaches to management are complicated, but the long-term health
of HIV-infected children depends on their correct application. This
handbook presents the core information and guidelines necessary for
effective management of infected children. Two other important
themes are ways to minimise mother-to-infant transmission, and the
challenges of looking after these children in resource-poor
countries.
