Screening for HIV: Who Are You Missing?
Guest: Stacey A. Rizza, M.D. (@DrStaceyRizza)
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. (@ChutkaMD)
Can you predict who has HIV and who doesn’t? Do you order universal HIV screening? What screening tests should be ordered and what happens when the results are positive or equivocal? When is a false negative possible? What is the effective window for post-exposure prophylaxis? Dr. Stacey Rizza discusses HIV and progression to AIDS, medical exposures, and screening in the first episode of this two-part HIV mini-series.
