Guidelines for the care of children and adolescents with HIV infection. Immunologic considerations in pediatric HIV infection
Abstract
The pervasive effect of HIV infection on the immune system requires that the clinician be alert to the variety of immunologic abnormalities that can result from this disease. The tests described in this section provide guidelines for testing the HIV-infected child. Additional information on immunologic evaluations in the child with indeterminate HIV infection status can be found in the article on ambulatory care.
