Welcome to Season 3 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive! From acute seroconversion illness to long-term primary care, managing HIV requires both clinical precision and compassionate communication. This episode breaks down the ASHM guidelines for acing this scenario. Learn the non-negotiable rule: immediate ART initiation regardless of CD4 count, and counselling patients on U=U (Undetectable = Untransmissible). We cover critical OSCE safety steps: screening HLA-B*5701 before Abacavir, offering PEP within 72 hours of potential exposure, navigating PrEP, executing mandatory contact tracing, and arranging s100 prescriber or specialist referral. Deliver a holistic, patient-centred plan today! #AMCClinicalExam #HIVOSCE #U=UCounselling #ASHMGuidelines #Post-ExposureProphylaxis(PEP) #PrEPAustralia #IMGAustralia #HLA-B5701Screening #s100Prescriber #AntiretroviralTherapy Pro Tip: In your OSCE, examiners closely assess your safety awareness and U=U counselling! Always emphasise that ART should be offered immediately regardless of CD4 count, and clearly explain U=U (Undetectable = Untransmissible) to empower the patient and reduce stigma. Remember the key safety check: never start Abacavir without testing for HLA-B*5701 to prevent life-threatening hypersensitivity reactions. Finally, if exposure occurred within 72 hours, explicitly offer PEP for contacts and document 100% commitment to contact tracing—this guarantees top marks for clinical safety! 🎧 <a href="https://apwix.com/100509">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a> Episodes in <a href="https://apwix.com/100509">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Season 1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a> (150 clinical scenarios) have been indexed by topic, patient group, discipline, setting, and more to support targeted learning.
