Central nervous system involvement contributes significantly to the morbidity and mortality of paediatric HIV infection. The spectrum of CNS morbidity varies from minor developmental disabilities to severe, progressive encephalopathy. Therefore regular developmental evaluation should be regarded as an essential component of the overall care of HIV-infected children. Antiretroviral therapy may arrest or even reverse neurocognitive and motor deficits associated with HIV infection. 2015-01-03T18:20:53Z 2015-01-03T18:20:53Z 2004 Master Thesis Masters MMed http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11190 eng application/pdf Department of Paediatrics and Child Health Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town |
