Specialist AIDS Care

AIDS Management - Comprehensive Specialist Care

AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) is the advanced stage of HIV infection where the immune system is severely compromised. Dr. Yuvraj Arora Monga provides comprehensive AIDS management - including ART initiation or optimisation, opportunistic infection treatment, and long-term immune recovery planning.

Understanding AIDS and What Management Involves

AIDS is diagnosed when an HIV-positive person's CD4 T-cell count drops below 200 cells/mm³ (normal range: 500-1,500) or when they develop one or more of the specific "AIDS-defining conditions" - opportunistic infections and cancers that arise because HIV has severely weakened the immune system.

Common AIDS-defining conditions include Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP), cryptococcal meningitis, toxoplasma encephalitis, cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis, Kaposi's sarcoma, and others. These conditions require both specific treatment and the underlying ART that addresses the root cause - HIV.

With proper specialist management including appropriate ART and prophylaxis, many patients who present with AIDS-stage disease can achieve immune recovery over time, with CD4 counts gradually rising and opportunistic infections becoming preventable. An AIDS diagnosis is not the end - it is the beginning of intensive specialist management that can restore health and quality of life.
