Description
Recent Advances in the Neurological and Neurodevelopmental Impact of HIV brings together world-leading experts in the field of HIV, to provide new and critical insights into HIV treatment and management for children and adolescents. Those infected with HIV are living longer thanks to antiretroviral drugs, and HIV-related neurological and neurodevelopmental disorders therefore require urgent attention, particularly complications which arise from long-term medication use. The authors summarise key findings in these important areas, as well as gaps in research and implications for paediatric HIV work. Readers of Recent Advances in the Neurological and Neurodevelopmental Impact of HIV will discover ways of optimising the neurological health of children and adolescents living with HIV through better care provision and earlier intervention.
⦁ Outlines the important clinical neurological issues facing children and young adults with HIV infection
⦁ Presents up-to-date diagnostic and treatment approaches
⦁ Provides practical clinical strategies to improve the care of children and adolescents with HIV
Recent Advances in the Neurological and Neurodevelopmental Impact of HIV is an essential resource for all clinicians involved in the care of children and adolescents with HIV and their families, including doctors, paediatricians, psychologists, and other health practitioners and researchers.
