Description
by M.D. Luis F. Pereira, M.D. Paulo M. G. Sales, M.D. John A. Grimaldi, M.D. James A. Bourgeois, O.D., M.D. Mary Ann Adler Cohen
When the AIDS pandemic first emerged in 1981, the diagnosis was considered terminal. Over the four decades since then, medical advances have transformed HIV/AIDS into a chronic and manageable condition. Despite this success, the incidence of HIV remains high, with 1.3 million new HIV infections annually worldwide and more than 30,000 annually in the United States. This manual underscores how comorbid psychiatric illnesses often hinder both HIV prevention and care. It makes the case that destigmatizing and integrating psychiatric comorbidities into medical treatment, research, and public health policy are essential for further meaningful progress in HIV prevention and care. Drawing on the expertise of over 20 contributors, the book covers psychiatric screening and evaluation in HIV care; psychiatric disorders associated with HIV, such as substance-related and addictive, depressive, and neurocognitive disorders; and management strategies for addressing multimorbidities. It also explores providing HIV care in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and in resource-limited settings. With a wealth of quick-reference tables and practical insights, the Clinical Manual of HIV Psychiatry equips psychiatrists and other clinicians to better serve patients with HIV throughout their lives.
