CATEGY N: NOT SYMPTOMATIC Children who have no signs or symptoms considered to be the result of HIV infection or who have only one of the conditions listed in Category A. CATEGY A: MILDLY SYMPTOMATIC Children with two or more of the conditions listed below but none of the conditions listed in Categories B and C. Lymphadenopathy (>= 0.5 cm at more than two sites; bilateral = one site) Hepatomegaly Splenomegaly Dermatitis Parotitis Recurrent or persistent upper respiratory infection, sinusitis or otitis media CATEGY B: MODERATELY SYMPTOMATIC Children who have symptomatic conditions other than those listed for Category A or C that are attributed to HIV infection. Examples of conditions in clinical Category B include but are not limited to: Anaemia (<8 gm/dl), neutropaenia (<1,000/mm 3 ), or thrombocytopaenia (<100,000/ mm 3 ) persisting for longer than 30 days Bacterial meningitis, pneumonia or sepsis (single episode) Candidiasis, oropharyngeal (thrush), persisting for longer than 2 months in children > 6 months of age Cardiomyopathy Cytomegalovirus infection, with onset before 1 month of age Diarrhoea, recurrent or chronic Hepatitis Herpes simplex virus (HSV) stomatitis, recurrent (more than 2 episodes within one year) HSV bronchitis, pneumonitis, or oesophagitis with onset before 1 month of age Herpes zoster (shingles) involving at least two distinct episodes or more than one dermatome Leiomyosarcoma Lymphoid Interstitial Pneumonia (LIP) or pulmonary lymphoid hyperplasia complex Nephropathy Nocardiosis Persistent fever (lasting >1 month) Toxoplasmosis, onset before 1 month of age Varicella, disseminated (complicated chickenpox)

2 APPENDIX 2 CDC Classification of stage C (AIDS) (Abbreviated from CDC 1994 classification) Opportunistic Infections Candidiasis Coccidioidomycosis Cryptococcosis Cryptosporidiosis or Isosporiasis Cytomegalovirus disease Herpes simplex virus Histoplasmosis Atypical mycobacterial (M Avium or M Kansasii, other) disease Mycobacterium tuberculosis Toxoplasmosis Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia Progressive multi focal leukoencephalopathy Salmonella (non-typhoid) Septicaemia Severe recurrent documented bacterial infection Wasting Syndrome HIV encephalopathy Kaposi's Sarcoma Lymphoma Immunoblastic Sarcoma Definitions Oesophageal or respiratory tract Disseminated or extrapulmonary Extrapulmonary Chronic intestinal with diarrhoea for > 1 month Disseminated, with onset > 1 month of age Disseminated, with onset > 1 month of age, or chronic ulcer persisting > 1 month Disseminated or extra pulmonary Disseminated at site other than or in addition to lungs, skin, cervical or hilar lymphadenopathy Disseminated or extra pulmonary Of the brain with onset > 1 month of age Pneumonia Recurrent Recurrent Any combination of at least 2 of the following within a 2-year period: septicaemia, pneumonia, meningitis, bone or joint infection, abscess of internal organ or body cavity. Wasting syndrome in the absence of a concurrent illness other than HIV infection that could explain the following findings: a) persistent weight loss >10% of baseline b) downward crossing of at least two of the following percentile lines on the weight-for-age chart (e.g. 95th, 75th, 50th, 25th, 5th) in a child >1 year of age c) <5th percentile on weight-for-height chart on two consecutive measurements, >30 days apart plus a) chronic diarrhoea (i.e. at least two loose stools per day for >30 days) b) documented fever (for >30 days, intermittent or constant) At least one of the following progressive findings for at least two months in the absence of a concurrent illness other than HIV infection that could explain the findings: a) Failure to attain or loss of developmental milestones or loss of intellectual ability, verified by standard developmental scale or neuropsychological tests b) impaired brain growth or acquired microcephaly demonstrated by head circumference measurements or by brain atrophy demonstrated by computerised tomography or magnetic resonance imaging (serial imaging is required for children <2 years of age) c) Acquired symmetric motor deficit manifested by two or more of the following: paresis, pathologic reflexes, ataxia, or gait disturbance CNS or small cell, non cleaved (Burkitt or non-burkitt) Definitive diagnosis: microscopy (histology or cytology); culture; antigen detection Presumptive diagnosis: characteristic clinical presentation, supported by investigations other than microscopy or culture and after exclusion of other causes in the differential diagnosis. 2

3 APPENDIX 3 Definition of body fat changes Mild: (grade 1) Moderate: (grade 2) Severe: (grade 3) Noticeable only if specifically looked for. No change in clothes fitting (other than expected by normal increase in height due to normal growth). Easily noted by patient or clinician. Clothing has become tight or loose (other than expected by normal increase in height due to normal growth). Obvious to the casual observer. Has required a change in clothing, due to change in body shape not due to increase in height. APPENDIX 4 Reasons for starting, stopping or changing therapy Please give as many reasons as applicable for starting, stopping or changing therapy. Reasons have been separated into stop/start/change for clarity. See page 4 for summary of abbreviations.

Requires medical care and possible hospitalisation. Sufficiently severe to require evaluation and treatment, including at least temporary suspension of drugs. Requires active medical intervention, hospitalisation, or hospice care. Life-threatening severity. Requires immediate evaluation, treatment, and usually hospitalisation.
