Clinical case discussion: Respiratory complications of HIV infection

22 May 2023

 

Chairs: Marijke Proesmans (Belgium); Sandra Kwarteng Owusu (Ghana)
Speakers: Pablo Rojo (Madrid, Spain), Rudzani Muloiwa (South Africa)

Overview

Clinicians across Africa and Europe need to be aware of HIV infection and exposure on the spectrum of disease children can present with. With an increasing immigrant population in Europe, and a high number of children born exposed to HIV in sub-Saharan Africa, it is critical that clinicians share the latest research and management strategies for children with HIV infection and exposure.

Educational aims

The webinar addresses the spectrum of respiratory infections and diseases in children who have HIV infection and HIV exposure and the impact on access to anti-retroviral treatments on the spectrum of disease in children exposed to HIV. The webinar also highlights recent data on vaccine responses to important respiratory infections in this cohort of children.

Topic

Respiratory infections in children with HIV infection.
