Clinical Impact of Aging and Comorbidities on HIV Management - Updated 5/20/20
Activity Summary:
The Simply Speaking HIV Management lecture series includes a curriculum that highlights the very latest clinical data utilizing a library of PowerPoint slide presentations developed and approved by key expert physicians and further reviewed and approved by the Planning Committee.
The number of older people with HIV is increasing, and those aging with HIV are experiencing an increasing burden of age-associated comorbidities. Although early initiation of ART is the cornerstone of therapy, greater attention is needed on preventative approaches to mitigate cardiovascular disease, renal insufficiency, bone disease/frailty, and cognitive decline. This activity will use a case-based approach to discuss age-related comorbidities in persons with HIV and prevention/management approaches for HIV and common comorbidities.
Updated information is noted on the slide in the upper right hand corner. Please note that participants who have previously claimed credit for this activity should not claim duplicate credit based on the updates.
