Abstract

Abstract: The aging population of people living with HIV (PLWH) face unique health and social challenges. We piloted a community-based wellness program, People Aging and Thriving with HIV (PATH2Wellness), aiming to improve health outcomes through physical activity, nutritional counseling, and social support within Colorado Health Network, a statewide AIDS service organization. Participants ages 50+ were recruited into three cohorts between September 2020 and December 2021. Weekly step counts and psychosocial measures were collected. Overall, while there were no statistically significant improvements in step count or secondary outcomes (including depression, social connectedness, self-reported physical function, and quality of life [all p ≥ .55]), participants noted a high level of satisfaction. Ongoing feedback led to modifications for program improvement; as such, PATH2Wellness shows promise in improving mental health and social connectedness, and findings underscore the importance of tailored programs for older PLWH, suggesting avenues for research and program development.

评估基于队列的健康老龄化与艾滋病毒健康试点干预：“人衰老和繁荣与艾滋病毒”在科罗拉多州。

摘要：艾滋病毒感染者（PLWH）老龄化人口面临着独特的健康和社会挑战。我们试点了一个以社区为基础的健康项目，即艾滋病毒携带者的老龄化和繁荣（PATH2Wellness），旨在通过体育活动、营养咨询和科罗拉多州健康网络（一个全州范围的艾滋病服务组织）的社会支持来改善健康结果。在2020年9月至2021年12月期间，50岁以上的参与者被招募到三个队列中。收集每周步数和社会心理测量数据。总体而言，虽然在步数或次要结果（包括抑郁、社会联系、自我报告的身体功能和生活质量）方面没有统计学上的显著改善，但参与者注意到高水平的满意度。持续的反馈导致了项目改进的修改；因此，PATH2Wellness显示出改善心理健康和社会联系的希望，研究结果强调了为老年PLWH量身定制项目的重要性，为研究和项目开发提供了途径。
