The latest edition of the EACS HIV guidelines (v12.1 ) were launched at HIV Glasgow 2024 in a special plenary that covered the most important and significant updates.
The guidelines have also been reorganised into two main parts and are now online published through an app, and on an interactive website, with both the previous print and PDF versions now discontinued.
Part one includes five sections covering initial assessments, ART, drug-interactions, treatment and prevention of STIs (including PrEP and PEP) and paediatric HIV.
Part two includes nine sections covering the management of complications including cancer, cardiovascular health and metabolic complications, kidney, liver and pulmonary complications, cognition and mental health, ageing and finally other complications (which include travel, transplantation, PROMS and sexual health).
The launch version is also open for comments for the next two months before being finalised.
A new call for new members to work on future guidelines also resulted in 10 new panelists from over 100 applications.
