Infección conocida con el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general)
Hola, estoy traduciendo un "Informed Consent" y tengo que traducir el siguiente punto "• Infección conocida con el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH), el virus de la hepatitis C (VHC) o el virus de la hepatitis B (VHB)." Estoy en duda de cual sería la mejor opción para "Infección conocida con el virus".
Gracias.

Yes, agree with Lirka, this is used in medical jargon.

TBPs are required to be used by staff when caring for patients with a known or suspected infection or colonisation

More context would be desirable. .

@David "Known" IS used in medical reports in this context

doesn't ring true IMO

I think we need an alternative to "known"

Knowledge of infection with HIV (human immunodeficiency virus)

Peer comment(s):

neutral Joseph Tein : Hi Giovanni. Clearly there's no "requirement" to give explanations or examples ... but it's more convincing and helpful, to support your suggestion and help the asker choose the best option. And if two doctors above agree, it's likely the best choice :)
