Abstract

Abstract: Among Hispanics, frailty has been extensively studied as a physical syndrome associated with an increased risk for adverse outcomes. Because of additional barriers to accessing care, the impact of frailty may be even more significant for people living with HIV (PLWH). Multidimensional frailty among Hispanic PLWH has not been studied. This study aimed to examine the factors related to multidimensional frailty among Hispanic PLWH aged 50 years and above. A cross-sectional design with 120 participants was used. Hypothesized factors related to multidimensional frailty were sociodemographic and psychosocial variables. Multidimensional frailty was measured with the Tilburg Frailty Indicator. We found that 45.83% of the participants were frail ( n = 55), and multidimensional frailty was significantly associated with higher depressive symptoms ( b = .26, p < .001) and a higher number of comorbidities ( b = .71, p < .001). This study identified factors that clinicians should be aware of when caring for Hispanic PLWH to prevent or manage frailty-related complications.

50岁及以上西班牙裔艾滋病毒感染者的多维脆弱性相关因素:一项横断面研究

摘要:在西班牙裔人群中，虚弱被广泛研究为一种与不良后果风险增加相关的身体综合征。由于在获得护理方面存在额外障碍，虚弱对艾滋病毒感染者的影响可能更为严重。西班牙裔PLWH的多维脆弱性尚未得到研究。本研究旨在探讨50岁及以上西班牙裔PLWH患者的多维虚弱相关因素。采用120名参与者的横断面设计。与多维脆弱相关的假设因素是社会人口学和社会心理变量。多维脆弱性用蒂尔堡脆弱性指标来衡量。我们发现45.83%的参与者身体虚弱(n = 55)，多维虚弱与较高的抑郁症状(b = 0.26, p < 0.001)和较高的合并症数量(b = 0.71, p < 0.001)显著相关。本研究确定了临床医生在护理西班牙裔PLWH时应注意的因素，以预防或管理与虚弱相关的并发症。
