HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that attacks the body’s immune system, specifically the CD4 cells (T cells), which help the immune system fight infections.

Anyone at risk of HIV exposure or needing routine screening should undergo this test. This includes sexually active individuals with multiple partners, intravenous drug users, and individuals with potential exposure through blood transfusions or needle-sharing.

Yes, the HIV Spot Test is highly accurate in detecting HIV antibodies. However, a positive result requires confirmation through additional tests.

No, additional tests are needed to differentiate between HIV-1 and HIV-2, which are two different strains of the virus.

A positive result indicates possible HIV infection. Further confirmatory tests and counseling will be provided to determine the next steps for treatment and care.

3. ICU Bedside Dialysis Services

ICU Bedside Dialysis is a service provided in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for patients with kidney failure who require dialysis while remaining in the ICU for critical care.

Patients may need bedside dialysis if they have acute kidney injury or chronic kidney disease that requires dialysis while they are critically ill or unstable.

Bedside dialysis is performed using specialized equipment and techniques to remove waste products and excess fluids from the blood while the patient remains in the ICU.

Bedside dialysis allows for continuous monitoring and treatment of critically ill patients without needing to transport them to a separate dialysis unit, which can be safer and more convenient.

Risks include infection, bleeding, and complications related to the dialysis procedure. The ICU team closely monitors patients to manage and minimize these risks.
