6 Prphylaxis Prphylaxis fr patients with a bld r bdily fluid expsure f ANY TYPE, including sexual assault: HIV cnsider PEP after discussin f risks/benefits (see pages 8-10) Hepatitis B give vaccine t all expsed patients. Give Hep B Immune Glbulin (HBIG) nly if the expsed patient is unvaccinated, has received <3 dses f vaccine, r vaccinatin status is unknwn, AND surce is KNOWN TO BE INFECTED with hepatitis B 1,2. Hepatitis C n prphylaxis is available. Tetanus vaccine is indicated fr needle stick r wund, if mst recent tetanus vaccine was >5 years ag. Give Tetanus Immune Glbulin (TIG) nly if the expsed patient is unvaccinated, has received <3 dses f vaccine, r vaccinatin status is unknwn 3. Prphylaxis against STIs and pregnancy fr pst-pubertal children ( 12 years ld) with knwn r suspected sexual expsure: Gnrrhea all patients 12 years ld with sexual expsure (d nt await results f PCR testing) Weight < 45 kg- Ceftriaxne IV/IM 125 mg nce Weight > 45 kg- Ceftriaxne IV/IM 250 mg nce If renal insufficiency, please cntact ID fr alternative Chlamydia all patients 12 years ld with sexual expsure (d nt await results f PCR testing) Weight < 50 kg- Azithrmycin 20 mg/kg PO nce Weight > 50 kg- Azithrmycin 1000 mg PO nce Trichmnas female patients 12 years ld with psitive vaginal pathgen screen Metrnidazle 2000 mg PO nce Pregnancy female patients with negative pregnancy test, <120 hurs since sexual cntact Ulipristal (Ella ) 30 mg PO nce Prphylaxis against STIs and pregnancy fr pre-pubertal children (< 12 years ld) with knwn r suspected sexual expsure: Call ID and/r CPT fr all sexual assaults in patients less than 12 years f age t determine the need fr STI and/r pregnancy prphylaxis. If prphylaxis is nt administered after discussin with ID and/r CPT, perfrm all screening labs and PCP shuld fllw up n these labs and treat if necessary.

HIV Pst-Expsure Prphylaxis (PEP) The risk f HIV transmissin varies greatly depending n the particular expsure. Given that each expsure is unique in its risk prfile, a discussin f the risks f transmissin, ptential benefits f PEP, and ptential cmplicatins f PEP with the patient/parents is recmmended using the infrmatin prvided belw. Please call the n-call infectius diseases prvider fr help with PEP recmmendatins. Ptential Benefits f HIV Pst-Expsure Prphylaxis The ptential benefit f HIV PEP depends n the efficacy f the regimen, timing f PEP initiatin after expsure, and adherence t the entire regimen. 1. Efficacy f Regimen: PEP using single-drug therapy fllwing ccupatinal expsure decreases transmissin by 81% 1. Experts nw recmmend the use f a multi-drug regimen with mre ptent antiretrviral agents, which is likely t increase this efficacy. 2. Timing f Expsure: PEP is mst effective when begun as sn as pssible after expsure and becmes less effective as time frm expsure increases. PEP is less likely t be effective 72 hurs after expsure, but the interval after which n benefit is gained is unknwn 1. If >72 hurs have passed since expsure t a surce whse HIV status is unknwn, PEP is nt recmmended; hwever, testing per Table 1 shuld still be cnducted. If >72 hurs have passed since expsure t a surce wh is knwn t be HIV infected, please cntact ID fr recmmendatins n PEP. Page 7 f 16

8 3. Adherence t PEP: The efficacy f PEP depends upn adherence t the entire 28-day curse f medicatin. The mst cmmn reasn fr PEP discntinuatin is side effects. Althugh side effects f PEP regimens are cmmn, they are rarely severe r serius (see Table 3 fr regimen-specific side effects). The side effect prfile f newer antiretrvirals is imprved cmpared with lder drugs. Once-daily regimens als imprve adherence. PEP Drug Regimens All regimens are FOUR WEEKS in duratin. Prescribe 7 days f ndansetrn (Zfran ) with every PEP regimen t ensure tlerability.

9 TABLE 3. Cmmn Side Effects Experienced with the Recmmended PEP Regimens Intended patients PEP regimen Adverse Effects 12 years and 40 kg Truvada / dlutegravir Cmmn but mild: fatigue, dizziness, insmnia, headache, nausea, diarrhea, liver enzyme elevatin <12 years and/r <40 kg Lamivudine / zidvudine / raltegravir Cmmn but mild: nausea, diarrhea, anemia, neutrpenia, liver enzyme elevatin; headache, insmnia, rash. Rare but severe: muscle pain due t mysitis RISK OF TRANSMISSION Risk f transmissin f HIV r hepatitis B r C is based n the prbability that the surce was infected, the viral lad f an infected surce, and the type f expsure. 1. Prbability surce was infected: a. HIV: As f 2015, the serprevalence f HIV in Clrad is 0.24% (239.2 HIV-infected persns per 100,000 peple) 4. Certain risk grups, including sexual assailants, injecting drug users, and men wh have sex with men have a higher serprevalence. Serprevalence als varies by cunty, with higher rates in Denver metr and El Pas cunties 4. b. Hepatitis B: The Clrad Dept. f Public Health and Envirnment estimates that there are currently abut 16,370 (range f 10,913 t 21,826) peple in Clrad living with chrnic HBV. This estimate is based n the U.S. Census 2015 Clrad ppulatin estimated ppulatin and a natinal published HBV prevalence rate estimate f 0.3% (range f 0.2%-0.4%) 4. c. Hepatitis C: The Clrad Dept. f Public Health and Envirnment estimates that there are currently abut 70,935 (range f 54,566 t 109,131) peple in Clrad living with chrnic, unreslved HCV. This estimate is based n the U.S. Census 2015 Clrad ppulatin estimated ppulatin and a natinal published HCV prevalence rate estimate f 1.3% (range f 1.0% t 2.0) Risk f HIV Transmissin Based n Type f Expsure 1 See Table 4 n the next page.

10 TABLE 4. Risk f HIV Transmissin Based n Expsure Type Transmissin Risk per Expsure Type Expsure t a Knwn HIV Psitive Surce Expsure t Cntaminated Sharp Cmments Accidental needle stick Needle-sharing during injectin drug use Sexual Expsures 0.23% (1 per 435) Discarded needles are lw-risk expsures, as HIV is intlerant t envirnmental cnditins. There has never been a reprted case f HIV transmissin frm a discarded needle, as f % (1 per 159) Risk f transmissin frm a needle stick depends n the bre f the needle and depth f penetratin. Discarded small bre needles (i.e. insulin syringes) r slid sharps (i.e., scalpels) with shallw penetratin frm a lw risk ppulatin (i.e., diabetics) wuld be f very lw risk. Newly discarded hllw bre needles with visible bld frm areas frequented by high HIV serprevalent ppulatins (i.e. injecting drug users) wuld be f higher risk. Receptive anal intercurse Receptive vaginal 1.38% (1 per 72) 0.08% Risk f HIV transmissin due t sexual assault r abuse assciated with trauma, bleeding, and tissue injury is significantly higher than that f cnsensual sexual cntact. intercurse (1 per 1,250) Althugh ral sex with intact mucsa is a lw risk transmissin Insertive anal 0.11% event, the presence f ral sres r mucsal injuries increases intercurse (1 per 909) the risk f transmissin. Insertive vaginal 0.04% intercurse (1 per 2,500) Mst experts wuld recmmend PEP in cases f sexual assault r abuse, r sexual cntact with a knwn HIV-psitive surce. Oral sex with Lw risk ejaculatin Mucus Membrane Expsures Oral expsure t bld Nn-intact Skin Expsures Negligible Biting: HIV transmissin frm bites is extremely rare. A bite withut a break in the skin is nt cnsidered an expsure. A bite invlving a high-risk surce with breaks in the skin and bld expsure increases transmissin risk. Kissing/Muth t Muth Resuscitatin: Shuld nt be cnsidered an expsure withut mucsal damage r bld expsure. Saliva cntaminated with bld pses a substantial expsure risk. HIV transmissin by this rute has been reprted. Rare cases f HIV transmissin after nn-intact skin expsure t infected bld have been dcumented, but the risk has nt been quantified. Page 10 f 16
