A simple way to determine HIV in women

Usually there is no special difference between the methods used to test women for HIV and men. AIDS is caused by HIV infection, the simpler method is to use test strips, mainly including blood test strips, saliva test strips, urine test, compared to saliva test is more convenient and fast. 1, blood test strips: the accuracy rate is higher, but with a certain degree of invasiveness; 2, saliva test strips: can detect AIDS, but this method of detection is only the initial screening stage of HIV antibody detection, compared to Compared with blood test, it takes less time and there is no risk of other infections transmission, which can protect the privacy to a certain extent; 3, urine test: it is a new clinical test method, the urine test result is more accurate, but it cannot be used as a basis for diagnosis, the window period of urine test paper is from 3 weeks to 3 months after contact with risk factors, you can also choose different brands of test paper for You can also choose different brands of test strips for testing. After the test paper test, it is necessary to make a comprehensive judgment based on the patient’s epidemiological history, laboratory tests and other results. If a woman has a history of unclean sex, intravenous drug transfusion, unsafe blood or blood products, occupational exposure, or if her parents are HIV positive, the possibility of HIV infection can be considered and the following tests can be performed: 1. HIV antibody test: If the screening result is positive, further immunoblot test can be performed and if the result is still positive, HIV infection can be confirmed; 2. Antigen detection: If infected with HIV, P24 antigen may appear in the body, but because P24 antigen is relatively small, the positive rate of detection is low; 3, virus isolation: use normal human peripheral blood and isolate nuclear cells, adding single nuclear cells suspected of AIDS patients for diagnosis; 4, antibody detection: including enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunofluorescence test (IFA ), which is a relatively rapid test method for qualitative HIV antibody detection; 5, nucleic acid testing: rapid, efficient, sensitive and highly specific, etc., and more widely used.
