All risks are relative. The response of most people to risks however, comes not from rational processes, but from fear. Situations in which HIV prophylaxis must be considered put emergency physicians into a difficult position. Guidelines are fine in theory, but in practice, people exposed to something as fear-inspiring as HIV are usually not in a position to make logical choices. The Risk Assessment Stratification Protocol (RASP) (Fig. 1) uses the principles of Bayesian analysis to give people a way to make decisions under these circumstances, by putting their risk into perspective alongside risks that we all take in our everyday lives. Table 1 is a useful guide to help patients understand what various levels of risk really mean. There is one important caveat. Probabilities look like numbers and therefore tend to be used as measurements. They are not, however, really numbers, but estimates, which means they cannot have exact values. To illustrate, probabilities of 1/1000 and 1/1100 are for all intents and purposes the same thing. When discussing probabilities of this nature, only large differences are important. This protocol assumes that the minimum relevant difference for decision-making purposes is one order of magnitude (a factor of 10). So even if some of the values in the RASP formula are not precise, it makes little difference because they would need to be out by a factor of 10 to substantially alter any decisions.
