RESEARCH ACTIVITY: HIV AND COMORBIDITIES
Slide 6-

Activity: HIV and Co-morbidities Write and present: 3-4 facts you discover from the fact sheet about the co-morbidity. What are the effects of living with HIV and this comorbidity? Why should people with HIV care about this comorbidity? What’s most important to remember to help people with HIV and this comorbidity stay healthy? Draw an illustration representing the comorbidity. This could be the organ most affected by the comorbidity, the effects – use your imagination! HIV and Comorbidities

HIV and Diabetes Key Points Lifestyle can reduce the risk of diabetes. Diabetes requires frequent monitoring and can have serious consequences if left untreated. Rates of diabetes are higher in people with HIV than in the general population. HIV and Comorbidities
Slide 8-

HIV and Kidney Disease Key Points HIV can cause kidney failure due to HIV infection of the kidney cells. Kidney problems can lead to end-stage renal disease or kidney failure. This can require dialysis or a kidney transplant. About 30% of people with HIV may have kidney disease and if it advances it can cause heart disease and bone disease. Several HIV medications are hard on the kidneys, including antiretroviral medications and some medications used to treat HIV-related health problems. HIV and Comorbidities

HIV and High Blood Pressure Key Points Blood pressure should be monitored regularly as part of HIV care. HIV drugs can interact with other medicines to affect blood pressure. Blood pressure can be affected by diet, smoking, and lack of exercise. HIV and Comorbidities
Slide 10-

HIV and Hepatitis C Key Points A blood test for antibodies will show exposure to hepatitis C. HIV treatment has particular benefits for people with HIV and hepatitis C co-infection. Hepatitis C treatment can cure most people of hepatitis C. HIV and Comorbidities
Slide 11-

HIV and Depression Key Points Depression can be a life-threatening disorder. Depression among people with HIV is common and is associated with increased high-risk behavior, nonadherence to ART, and progression of immunodeficiency. Depression can be diagnosed and treatment can be initiated in the primary care setting. HIV and Comorbidities

HIV and Drug Use Key Points Substance use disorders (SUDs) are common among people with HIV: 40% of people with HIV in the United States are associated with injection drug use (IDU), either directly or by having an IDU sex partner. Among people who inject drugs in the United States, 40-45% have HIV. Substance use is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in itself, and it is associated with HIV transmission and acquisition. Ask all patients about any current or recent use of illicit drugs or alcohol, or misuse of prescription drugs. Ask specifically about injection drugs, opioids, methamphetamines, cocaine, and "club drugs." HIV and Comorbidities
