Mental Health Webinar Series: Neurocognitive Disorders

Webinar DescriptionThis webinar will provide an overview of neurocognitive disorders and HIV. HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders are one of the most common mental health disorders faced by people with HIV. HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders can be assessed via two methods, by assessing symptoms and by follow-up testing. This webinar will discuss the various factors and comorbidities of cognitive impairment that should be considered beyond HIV for people who have HIV. As well, we will discuss potential targets for treatment of cognitive impairment for people with HIV.

Designed for the HIV health care professional, this webinar will look at the clinical manifestation of neurocognitive disorders among people with HIV. Also covered in the webinar: diagnostic criteria; etiology and physiology of neurocognitive disorders; the impact of neurocognitive disorders on health; and evidence-based interventions, including prescribing and monitoring of psychotropic medications.
