Abstinence:
Complete cessation of substance-using behavior.
Acute retroviral syndrome:
An array of symptoms that arises after initial infection with HIV that includes fever, sore throat, swollen glands, muscle and joint pain, nausea, and rash.
Adherence:
Strict observation of a prescribed treatment regimen, including correct dosage and number of doses per day, as well as taking doses with or without food or other medications.
Agranulocytosis:
A sudden, severe drop in white blood cell count that can occur upon the administration of certain HIV medications.
AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome):
AIDS is the end stage of HIV disease and is characterized by a severe reduction in CD4+ T cells. At this point, an infected person has a very weak immune system and is vulnerable to contracting life-threatening infections.
Antiretroviral:
A medication that weakens or halts the reproduction of retroviruses such as HIV.
Blood-brain barrier:
A physical barrier between the blood vessels and the brain that only allows certain substances to pass through and enter the brain.
CD4+ T cell count:
The number of CD4+ T cells in a milliliter of blood. These cells (white blood cells within the immune system) are constantly measured in HIV-infected clients because their number reflects the overall health of the immune system.
Case finding:
A component of outreach that identifies individuals at higher risk for HIV infection and that stresses HIV/AIDS prevention, along with the distribution of items to facilitate compliance with risk reduction techniques.
Combination therapy:
The treatment of HIV disease with multiple medications. Combinations of three or more different medicines are used to treat a client, with each medicine working in a different way to stop the virus. While this is the most effective treatment to date, once combination therapy is begun, it must not be stopped because the virus could then develop resistance to these medications.
Cross-resistance:
Resistance that can develop in the HIV virus once a medication from a certain class is used (e.g., protease inhibitors, nucleosides) to treat it. The virus not only becomes resistant to one particular drug but also becomes resistant to some or all of the other drugs from that class. For this reason, it is widely believed that the best chance for success in HIV treatment is with the first treatment regimen.
Cultural competence:
An aspect of treatment that takes into account the cultural heritage of the client. Culturally competent providers recognize the customs, beliefs, and social forms of the racial, religious, or social group to which the client belongs and work within these parameters to interact successfully with the client.
Cytomegalovirus (CMV):
Any of the group of herpes viruses that appear as opportunistic infections in patients with HIV disease, generally in the latter stages of AIDS. CMV most commonly causes retinitis, which can lead to blindness if untreated, and may also cause gastrointestinal, adrenal, pulmonary, and other systemic problems.
Drug interaction:
The positive or negative effect that one medication has on another when an HIV-infected client is taking both.
Endocarditis:
Bacterial endocarditis is a well-recognized complication of unsterile injection drug use that produces inflammation of the endocardium (the lining of the heart). It can also appear as an HIV-related opportunistic infection.
HAART (highly active antiretroviral therapy):
Aggressive combination therapy that usually includes a powerful protease inhibitor medication.
Harm reduction:
An approach to treatment that emphasizes incremental decreases in substance abuse or HIV risk behaviors as treatment goals. This method attempts to keep clients in treatment even if complete abstinence is not achieved.
Herpes zoster (shingles):
A virus that often appears as an initial indication of HIV disease and begins with itching or pain on only one side of the face or body, followed by a rash that looks like chicken pox or poison ivy.
HIV (human immunodeficiency virus):
The retrovirus that causes AIDS in humans. HIV is transmitted through direct contact with human bodily fluids; roughly 10 years after infection, AIDS-defining conditions begin to occur. AIDS is characterized by a severe reduction in CD4+ T cells, which greatly weakens the immune system and leaves the patient vulnerable to contracting life-threatening infections. New medicines can control HIV and extend the life of the patient; however, AIDS is inevitably fatal.
Homophobia:
An irrational aversion to gay men and lesbians and to their lifestyle.
Hospice:
A program or facility that provides care for clients in the last stages of a terminal disease such as AIDS and creates a compassionate environment in which clients can die peacefully.
Leukoplakia:
A virus that causes white patches in the mouth and is one of the initial indications of HIV infection.
Lymphadenopathy:
Swollen lymph nodes, the most common symptom during the HIV latency period. The lymph nodes can be found around the neck and under the arms and contain cells that fight infections. When an infection is present, lymph nodes usually swell. Inside the lymph nodes HIV is trapped and destroyed, but eventually the HIV breaks down the tissue of the nodes and spills into the rest of the body.
Monotherapy:
Treatment of HIV infection with only one medication, usually AZT. This was the standard treatment for HIV before 1995 and is now outdated.
MSMs:
Men who have sex with men.
Neutropenia:
Bone marrow suppression, which can occur upon the administration of certain HIV medications.
Nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI):
A type of medication that binds to HIV's reverse transcriptase enzyme and stops the virus from replicating. NNRTI medications include delaviridine, efavirenz, and nevirapine.
Nucleoside analog:
A drug that mimics HIV's genetic material and halts it from reproducing. This class of drugs includes AZT, abacavir, didanosine, zalcitabine, stavudine, and lamivudine.
Opportunistic infection:
An infection that usually does not harm a healthy person but that can cause a life-threatening illness in someone with a compromised immune system.
Perinatal HIV transmission (vertical transmission):
Transmission of HIV from a mother to her child either in the uterus, during birth, or through breast-feeding.
Peripheral neuropathy:
A condition in which the peripheral nerves of the hands or feet are afflicted, producing numbness, tingling, pain, or weakness.
Phlebotomy:
The act of drawing blood.
Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP):
PCP is the most common AIDS-related infection and is characterized by a dry cough, fever, night sweats, and increasing shortness of breath. Since the late 1980s, the widespread use of PCP prophylaxis has resulted in a dramatic decrease in the incidence of this opportunistic infection. However, despite the availability of effective prophylaxis, PCP is still the most common opportunistic infection; many patients who develop PCP are unaware of their HIV status and hence are not receiving prophylaxis.
Postexposure prophylaxis (PEP):
Antiretroviral therapy that is administered within 72 hours after exposure to HIV in an attempt to eradicate the virus from the body.
Protease inhibitor:
One of a powerful class of drugs used in combination therapy that acts by interfering with the protease enzyme that cuts HIV proteins into the small pieces required to create new copies of the virus. This slows or halts the replication of HIV. Protease inhibitors include indinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir, and saquinavir.
Reverse transcriptase inhibitor (RTI):
A drug that halts HIV replication by interfering with the reverse transcriptase enzyme used by the HIV virus to transform its genetic material into a form that can be used to produce more viruses. This class of drugs includes nucleoside analogs like AZT and lamivudine.
Risk reduction:
An approach to treatment that emphasizes graduated behavior change rather than immediate abstinence. By identifying areas of risk in the client's life, such as sexual risk or needle sharing, the provider can discuss strategies with the client for avoiding or reducing them.
SEPs:
Syringe exchange programs.
Seroprevalence:
Frequency of presence of antibodies in blood serum as a result of infection.
STDs:
Sexually transmitted diseases.
Substance:
A drug of abuse, a medication, or a toxin.
Substance abuse:
A pattern of substance use that results in harmful consequences for the abuser. This condition is not as severe as substance dependence.
Substance dependence:
Repeated self-administration of a substance that usually results in tolerance, withdrawal, and compulsive substance-abusing behavior.
Thrush:
Oral candidiasis, or thrush, is a symptom of initial HIV infection and usually appears as white plaques at the back of the mouth. Without treatment, thrush often spreads throughout the mouth and can affect the esophagus in persons with advanced disease, leading to severe pain on swallowing and the need for prolonged systemic treatment.
Toxoplasmosis:
An AIDS-defining symptom caused by infection with the protozoan toxoplasma and one of the two most common brain infections in HIV. Toxoplasmosis, which produces seizures, usually does not appear until a client's CD4+ T cell count drops below 100.
Triple combination therapy:
Treatment involving three medications, which can lower the rate of disease progression and mortality more than can two medicines alone. Triple combination therapy was developed after combination-resistant forms of HIV began to appear.
Viral load:
The level of HIV circulating in the bloodstream. This level becomes very high soon after initial infection, then drops until it returns with the onset of AIDS. Drug therapy can keep viral load low or undetectable, but the client can still infect others since the virus still exists--it is simply not visible. Even when testing reveals a low viral load, HIV continues to live inside certain cells in the body and can begin reproducing at any time if the infected person is not on effective treatment. If a person is not in treatment, HIV produces billions of new virions (viral particles) every day.
1993 Revised Classification System for HIV Infection and
Expanded AIDS Surveillance Case Definition for Adolescents and Adults |
|||
CD4+ T cells |
Clinical Categories |
||
(A) Symptomatic, Acute (Primary) HIV or PGL* |
(B) CD4+ T cells Symptomatic, Not (A) or (C) Conditions |
(C) AIDS-Indicator Conditions |
|
(1) >500/mL |
A1 |
B1 |
C1 |
(2) 200-499/mL |
A2 |
B2 |
C2 |
(3) <200/mL |
>A3 |
B3 |
C3 |
(Shaded area indicates that the individual has AIDS.) |
The three CD4+ T-lymphocyte categories are defined as follows:
These categories correspond to CD4+ T-lymphocyte counts per mL of blood and guide clinical and therapeutic actions in the management of HIV-infected adolescents and adults. The revised HIV classification system also allows for the use of the percentage of CD4+ T cells.
HIV-infected persons should be classified based on existing guidelines for the medical management of HIV-infected persons. Thus, the lowest accurate, but not necessarily the most recent, CD4+ T lymphocyte count should be used for classification purposes.
The clinical categories of HIV infection are defined as follows:
Category A consists of one or more of the conditions listed below in an adolescent or adult (> 13 years) with documented HIV infection. Conditions listed in Categories B and C must not have occurred.
Category B consists of symptomatic conditions in an HIV-infected adolescent or adult that are not included among conditions listed in clinical Category C and that meet at least one of the following criteria:
For classification purposes, Category B conditions take precedence over those in Category A. For example, someone previously treated for oral or persistent vaginal candidiasis (and who has not developed a Category C disease) but who is now asymptomatic should be classified in clinical Category B.
Category C includes the clinical conditions listed in the AIDS surveillance case definition (below). For classification purposes, once a Category C condition occurs, the person will remain in Category C.
*This expanded definition requires laboratory confirmation of HIV infection in persons with a CD4+T lymphocyte count of fewer than 200 cells/mL or with an added clinical condition.
**Added as AIDS-defining illness in the 1993 expansion of the AIDS surveillance case definition, when occurring in persons with HIV infection.

This instrument is an effective screening tool for early detection of cytomegalovirus. An Amsler grid can help you monitor your central visual field. It can detect early and subtle visual changes resulting from several macular diseases such as age-related macular degeneration and diabetic macular edema. It is also helpful in tracking changes in vision once they have been discovered. The Amsler grid tests each eye separately. This helps you to recognize visual symptoms that are only in one eye.
The above are examples of two different Amsler grids. Both are useful for monitoring central vision. The grid on the right is a modified Amsler grid (Yannuzzi card) intended to be carried in the wallet or purse for daily self-assessment.
Ask yourself the following questions as you check each eye separately:
Note: If using a rectangular card like the one on the right above (Yannuzzi card), you should check each eye with the card held both vertically and horizontally.
If the answer to any of these questions is "yes" (and this is a new finding for you), you should contact your doctor immediately for an examination. Sometimes these changes may mean that there is leakage in the back of the eye causing swelling of the retina.

This assessment tool was developed by Steven Batki, M.D.; Marilyn Blake, R.N.; Valerie Gruber, Ph.D.; Ellie Milovitch, R.N.; Gale Ouye, L.C.S.W.; Kalpana Nathan, M.D.; and Richard Warren. It is currently in use at the Opiate Treatment Outpatient Program, San Francisco General Hospital, University of California at San Francisco.
1. Attendance
1a) Target Behavior:
Clients are expected to attend (or cancel with advance notice) 90 percent or more of scheduled clinic visits each month. This includes dosing, counseling, and other visits (e.g., social services, psychiatric services, or medical services).
1b) Initial Interventions:
Clients who attend less than 90 percent of scheduled visits for 1 month will receive counseling and behavior contracts to help them reduce unscheduled absences.
1c) Clinic Response to Continued Nonadherence:
Clients who continue to attend less than 90 percent of scheduled visits despite 6 months of the interventions above will be considered for discharge.
2. Giving Urine Samples Upon Request
2a) Target Behavior:
Clients are expected to provide urine samples and Breathalyzer_ tests upon request.
2b) Initial Interventions:
Clients who refuse urine samples or Breathalyzers_ or who no-show on urine collection days once or more per month will receive counseling and behavior contracts to help them reduce refusals and/or no-shows.
2c) Clinic Response to Continued Nonadherence:
Clients who continually refuse urine samples or Breathalyzers_ or who no-show on urine collection days after 6 months of the interventions above will be considered for discharge.
3. Drug and Alcohol Use
3a) Target Behavior:
Clients are expected to provide urine samples free of illicit drugs (including opiates and non-opiates) and Breathalyzer_ tests indicating nonsignificant alcohol use no later than after 1 year in the program. Prescribed medications and medicinal marijuana are not counted as illicit drugs.
3b) Initial Interventions:
Clients who provide drug/alcohol positive samples will receive counseling and behavior contracts to help them reduce and stop their drug/alcohol use.
3c) Clinic Response to Continued Nonadherence:
Clients who continue to provide drug/alcohol positive samples for several consecutive months at 2 years in the program, AND show no progress in other areas of their life, will be considered for discharge.
Note:
Clients who are discharged may apply after 1 month to be placed on the waiting list for readmission.
1. Is Physical Health = 2 or less? (disabled, severe disease, weekly medical care, assistance several times per week)
IF YES -- Use Palliative Care Model
These severely medically ill clients are generally expected to meet the expectations above. There areseveral modifications with these clients:
1a) Modified expectations regarding attendance and urine samples:
On rare occasions, medical problems prevent these clients from attending clinic or providing urine samples.
1b) Modified response to continued use of illicit drugs or alcohol:
Counseling focuses on reducing substance use as well as increasing access to and adherence to medical treatment.
These clients are rarely discharged for continued drug use. This is because methadone/LAAM can prevent the serious health effects of return to heavy heroin use by medically ill clients.
IF NO -- Go to 2
2. Is Mental Health = 2 or less? (moderate to severe psychiatric impairment)
IF YES -- Use Psychiatric Model
These severely mentally ill clients are generally expected to meet the expectations above. There are several modifications with these clients:
2a) Modified expectations regarding attendance:
The expected clinic attendance is lower for clients with severe psychiatric symptoms such as cognitiveimpairment, thought disorder, or mood disorder.
2b) Modified response to continued drug or alcohol use:
Counseling focuses on reducing substance use as well as increasing access and adherence to treatment of psychiatric disorder or cognitive deficit.
These clients are rarely discharged for continued drug use. This is because methadone/LAAM can help to maintain functioning and connection to services among clients with severe psychiatric symptoms.
IF NO -- Go to 3
3. Are Social Resources = 2 or less? (insufficient or high-risk social support, housing, and/or finances)
IF YES -- Use Psychosocial Model
These clients are generally expected to meet the expectations above. There are several modifications with these clients:
3a) Modified expectations regarding attendance:
The expected attendance is lower for clients with severely deficient housing, financial, ortransportation resources.
3b) Response to continued drug or alcohol use:
Counseling focuses on reducing substance use as well as accessing housing, finances, and transportation.
Clients who, despite efforts to access housing and other basic resources, continue to be homeless and impoverished are rarely discharged for continued drug use. This is because for these clients, the methadone/LAAM clinic is often one of the last remaining resources, the loss of which may be life threatening.
IF NO -- Go to 4
4. If no scale scores are 2 or less, use Standard Treatment Model
These clients are expected to meet the general expectations above.

The following are services that substance abuse treatment facilities should consider including in a contractual arrangement for primary medical care services:
At a minimum, freestanding substance abuse treatment units that have no physician on staff and provide no screening services for HIV should have an individual trained in HIV issues available for triage and referral when necessary. |

Drug |
Interaction and Effects |
Ecstasy |
3- to 10-fold buildup of 3,4-methylene-dioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) in the blood, bruxism (teeth grinding), palpitations, joint stiffness, dehydration. Possibility of liver and kidney damage. May be deadly. |
Speed/Methamphetamine |
2- to 3-fold buildup of methamphetamine in the blood, increased anxiety, manic behavior, shortness of breath, racing heart beat, and dehydration. |
Heroin |
Heroin is metabolized more quickly; less "hit," less "buzz," withdrawal symptoms. |
Special K (ketamine hydrochloride) |
Buildup of ketamine is likely; increased sedation, disorientation, and hallucinations. Effects last longer. |
Cocaine |
Little is known about cocaine's interaction with PIs as no studies have been conducted, but if an individual has HIV, smoking, shooting, or even snorting cocaine may compromise the immune system. In one test-tube study, cocaine made HIV reproduce 20 times faster than normal. |
GHB (gamma hydroxybutyric acid) |
Combining GHB with the antiprotease drugs is another unknown. Like many recreational drugs, GHB may suppress the immune system. |

Dosage |
Common side effects |
AZT, ZDV (Retrovir) Combivir is one pill containing AZT and lamivudine; it is not a different drug. |
Take 2 or 3 times daily, with or without food. |
May cause anemia. Some are afraid to take AZT because for many years it was used alone, but clients died anyway. In combination it can be far more effective. Do not combine with stavudine. |
Stavudine (Zerit) |
Take 2 times daily, with or without food. |
If numbness or tingling develops in the toes, see a medical professional. Do not combine with AZT. |
Lamivudine (Epivir) |
Take 2 times daily, with or without food. |
Active against hepatitis B. Discontinuing in the face of persistent hepatitis B can result in a flareup of hepatitis B. Do not combine with zalcitabine. Can be combined with AZT and called Combivir; can also be combined with didanosine. |
Didanosine (Videx) |
Take 1 or 2 times daily, without food. |
If numbness or tingling develops in the toes, see a medical professional. If persistent abdominal pain with or without vomiting develops, see a medical professional immediately. |

especially for clients with CD4+ T cell counts < 100 and/or a history of
HIV symptomatic disease. |
Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) |
Indications. Clients most at risk are those with
late-stage HIV disease (CD4+ T cell count < 50). |
Cryptococcosis |
Indications. Infrequent complication of HIV
infection. |
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) |

Problem |
Intervention |
Anorexia (poor appetite) |
Small, frequent meals; calorie- and protein-dense foods; relaxation techniques before meals; appetite stimulants (e.g., Megestrol acetate). Must investigate HIV medications as a potential cause of anorexia (e.g., ritonavir). |
Nausea |
Cold, bland, dry foods. Investigate HIV medications as a possible cause. |
Vomiting |
Liquid diet (temporarily). Eat when asymptomatic; antiemetics as needed. |
Diarrhea |
Use of bulking agents; fluid replacement. |
Early satiety |
Small, frequent meals. |
Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) |
Evaluate for oral diseases, opportunistic infection, and CNS disease. Soft, blenderized or pureed foods or baby foods as tolerated; calorie- and protein-dense supplements. |
Odynophagia (pain when swallowing) |
Same as for dysphagia, plus avoidance of foods that cause pain (soda bubbles or citrus, spicy, or rough-textured foods). |
Difficult or painful chewing |
Same as for dysphagia and odynophagia, plus sucralfate slurry or viscous lidocaine swish before meals. |

A hierarchical or stepwise strategy should be followed in
prescribing medications to HIV-infected substance abusers. Low doses of safer
and less abusable medications should be tried first, and higher doses or less
safe agents used only if the initial approach is ineffective.

This group, sponsored by San Francisco General Hospital,
is a popular support group for HIV-infected substance abusers who are ill or
recently discharged from the hospital. Groups meet in a conference room
adjacent to the main hospital cafeteria. Participants who are recovering from
substance use discuss their experiences of withdrawal, and current abusers
discuss the difficulties of discontinuing substance use. Members of the group
also discuss whether abstinence should be the goal of all members of the group. |

On April 19, 1993, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment, and the National Institute on Drug Abuse issued a joint bulletin updating recommendations to prevent HIV transmission through the use of bleach to disinfect drug injection equipment. Thebulletin particularly addresses persons who cannot or will not stop injecting drugs. This bulletin states that:
The bulletin contains provision recommendations for the
use of bleach to disinfect needles and syringes (including the recommendation
for using full-strength household bleach). CDC recommendations for
disinfecting environmental surfaces contaminated with blood are unchanged.
Staff of HIV prevention programs should review how the use
of bleach is currently taught and promoted and how injection drug users are
using bleach. The principles of bleach disinfection just described should be
incorporated into guidance provided to them. Program staff, outreach staff,
and drug users should work together to develop easily understood messages to
communicate these steps. |

Transmission of HIV is highly unlikely within institutions
such as health care facilities, residential facilities, correctional
facilities, residences, and substance abuse treatment programs when universal
precautions are observed.

The Hilltop Center program in Longview, Texas, has clearly laid out the expectation that staff members must listen to clients from the beginning to gain a real understanding of where these clients are in their lives. Staff members are asked not to use labels or tag clients with what may be judgmental treatment jargon, such as
Labels such as these do not help to develop an effective
intervention and treatment plan or help the client and counselor to start
working toward recovery. |

One recent study recruited 18 HIV-positive, heterosexual,
minority men from an outpatient HIV/AIDS clinic in upstate New York and a
community-based AIDS service organization in New York City to explore the
experience of heterosexual minority men living with HIV. Findings revealed
that the experience of surviving HIV infection encompassed several stages. |
