摘要
Occupational transmission of HIV among healthcare personnel is rare but has repeatedly been published in the literature. Early initiation of postexposure HIV prophylaxis (HIV-PEP) is crucial to prevent virus transmission. For this reason the need for HIV-PEP has to be evaluated immediately and if necessary, started as soon as possible. This article presents an early intervention program in a university hospital which enables healthcare personnel immediate 24/7/365 access to a HIV-PEP prophylaxis kit following occupational HIV exposure.
