Reported sexual assault in Jamaica is highest among children and adolescents. The risk of HIV transmission after sexual assault, although small, may be significant in certain circumstances, and it is therefore reasonable that post-exposure prophylaxis should be offered. These HIV transmission rates are similar to those of healthcare workers after occupational exposure to known HIV-infected blood for which routine post-exposure prophylaxis is recommended. We present a case series of children/adolescents with HIV/AIDS post-sexual assault and make the case for post-exposure prophylaxis for HIV infection following sexual assault.
据报道,牙买加儿童和青少年遭受性侵犯的情况最为严重。性侵犯后感染艾滋病毒的风险虽然很小,但在某些情况下可能很大,因此提供暴露后预防措施是合理的。这些艾滋病毒传播率与医护人员职业暴露于已知感染艾滋病毒的血液后的传播率相似,对于后者,建议进行常规暴露后预防。我们展示了一系列儿童/青少年在遭受性侵犯后感染艾滋病毒/艾滋病的病例,并论证了对性侵犯后感染艾滋病毒进行暴露后预防的必要性。
