## 根因

HIV暴露后预防（PEP）必须在暴露后72小时内开始，最好在4小时内。等待源患者检测结果而延迟PEP——尤其是源患者为高风险（如静脉吸毒者、状态不明）——会浪费关键时间。CDC指南建议若源患者高风险或状态不明，立即开始经验性PEP，仅在源患者检测阴性后停用。

## 解决方案

1. ```
   Immediately after needle-stick injury: wash wound with soap and water (don't scrub), flush mucous membranes with water. Go to occupational health or ED within 4 hours. Start empiric PEP (e.g., tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg + emtricitabine 200 mg once daily, plus raltegravir 400 mg twice daily or dolutegravir 50 mg once daily) if source is high-risk or unknown. Obtain source patient's consent for HIV testing, but do not delay PEP. If source tests negative (with fourth-generation antigen/antibody test), PEP can be stopped.
   ```
2. ```
   If source patient is unavailable or refuses testing, continue full 28-day PEP course. Offer HCW baseline HIV test, then follow-up testing at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months post-exposure.
   ```

## 无效尝试

- **Recommending to wait for source patient's rapid HIV test (e.g., fingerstick) before starting PEP** — Rapid tests have a window period (up to 3 months for some); a negative rapid test does not rule out acute HIV infection. PEP should start immediately if source is high-risk. (75% 失败率)
- **Telling HCW to 'just wash the wound and monitor for symptoms'** — Symptoms of acute HIV infection appear 2-4 weeks post-exposure; waiting for symptoms loses the window for PEP entirely. PEP is only effective if started before seroconversion. (90% 失败率)
- **Suggesting that PEP is only needed if the source patient is known to be HIV-positive** — Many source patients are unaware of their status; up to 40% of occupational HIV exposures are from unknown-status sources. Empiric PEP is standard in these cases. (80% 失败率)
