Abstract
Objective: To characterize the survival of elderly people with HIV infection who had follow-up at a reference service in Jaboatão dos Guararapes, Pernambuco, Brazil.
Methods: This is a retrospective cohort of elderly people who began follow-up between 2006 and 2021. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used. The Cox model was applied to calculate the hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) of survival based on the study variables.
Results: 116 elderly people were analyzed, the majority (n=83) were 60-69 years old and were diagnosed after the age of 60 (n=45). Risk of death was higher among elderly people who were hospitalized during the study period (HR 4.83; 95%CI 1.07; 21.79). Nine people died from HIV-related causes and average survival time was 76.5±48.5 months. In the first year of the study, probability of survival was greater than 96%.
Conclusion: Survival varied from less than one month to more than 195 months. Among the sociodemographic and clinical factors studied, only hospitalization showed significant association with occurrence of deaths among the elderly. Although the study was carried out in just one service, these results can contribute to guiding care strategies for elderly people living with HIV.
目的:描述在巴西伯南布哥州jaboat o dos Guararapes参考服务中心接受随访的老年HIV感染患者的生存率。方法:这是一项2006年至2021年间开始随访的老年人回顾性队列研究。采用Kaplan-Meier生存分析。根据研究变量,应用Cox模型计算生存风险比(HR)和95%置信区间(95% ci)。结果:分析116例老年人,多数(n=83)为60-69岁,60岁以后确诊(n=45)。在研究期间住院的老年人死亡风险较高(HR 4.83;95%可信区间1.07;21.79)。9人死于艾滋病相关原因,平均生存时间为76.5±48.5个月。在研究的第一年,生存率大于96%。结论:生存期从不足1个月到超过195个月不等。在研究的社会人口学和临床因素中,只有住院与老年人死亡的发生有显著关联。尽管这项研究仅在一项服务中进行,但这些结果可以有助于指导感染艾滋病毒的老年人的护理策略。
