A integralidade no cuidado das pessoas vivendo com HIV e AIDS: a experiência do Centro de Referência e Treinamento em DST/AIDS da SES-SP

Ao assumir o compromisso com a prevenção e tratamento, baseada no princípio da integralidade, a estratégia brasileira, fez a diferença na resposta nacional à aids nas décadas de 1980/90 e criou um novo paradigma que mostrou-se avançado do ponto de vista técnico, ético e político, contribuindo para a mudança nas recomendações das agências internacionais (OMS\\Banco Mundial) - do \"não tratar e só prevenir\" do início dos anos 1990, para o \"Tratamento como Prevenção\", base da atual proposta dos 90/90/90. Essa estratégia de controle da epidemia concentra responsabilidade na Rede de Serviços, em um período de discussão sobre mudanças no modelo de atenção a ser priorizado no país. Características relevantes dos contextos político e programáticos permitiram uma maior efetivação do cuidado às PVHA no Estado de São Paulo. O objetivo do presente estudo é recuperar a história do Centro de Referência e Treinamento em DST/Aids (CRT) na gestão e organização programática do cuidado em HIV/Aids no Estado de São Paulo, no período de 1988 a 2015, interpretando-a sob a perspectiva dos aspectos facilitadores e limitadores da incorporação prática do princípio da integralidade às ações de saúde. Realizou-se, nesse sentido, uma revisão narrativa da literatura sobre o tema da integralidade no campo da Saúde Coletiva Brasileira nas últimas cinco décadas. Tomando por base o cotejamento com esse desenvolvimento conceitual, a trajetória do CRT foi analisada por meio de entrevistas com atores-chaves no processo da gestão e organização programática do cuidado das PVHA no Estado de São Paulo, e análise dos documentos produzidos no processo. Esta análise foi organizada em torno de dois grandes eixos temáticos: (1) a criação e estruturação do CRT, e (2) as relações entre o CRT, os Programas Municipais de DST/aids e a rede de serviços assistenciais no Estado de São Paulo. Entre os resultados do estudo, destacam-se o resgate e reflexão crítica sobre o desenvolvimento dos discursos tecnocientíficos sobre integralidade no contexto das propostas de reforma da saúde no Brasil; a incorporação desses construtos às propostas desenvolvidas pelo CRT, especialmente em torno aos conceitos de vulnerabilidade, cuidado, clínica ampliada e direitos humanos em saúde; e a identificação de arranjos institucionais, estratégias técnicas e configurações políticas que permitiram ao CRT o exercício articulado de três níveis de gestão do cuidado (das PVHA, dos serviços e da Rede) numa mesma plataforma. Conclui-se apontando alcances e limites na efetivação da integralidade, que se mostraram desiguais nos três níveis de gestão do cuidado. Aponta-se maiores avanços na dimensão gerencial da rede e as maiores dificuldades na efetivação da integralidade no cuidado das PVHA e na gestão dos serviços de saúde

HIV/AIDS: um perfil epidemiológico do vírus e uma análise das práticas seguras, conhecimento e percepção de mulheres

In recent decades, the debate surrounding the consequences of the HIV has passed by great changes. Earlier, prevention campaigns focused risk groups then risk behaviors and ultimately vulnerability. Furthermore, over the years, the dimensions of HIV that emerged in the social environment are these: internalization, heterosexualization, impoverishment and feminization. Based on these contexts, the composition of this study comprises two papers: the former has the overall objective to analyze the epidemiology and incidence of HIV in Brazilian regions in the period from 1980 to 2012; the latter, it aims to find out whether there is the relationship among safe practices, knowledge and perception of women residents in Manaus and Boa Vista cities on the infection by HIV. In paper 1, it was used information from the Health Ministry, as a data source. Besides, it was developed an exploratory and spatial analysis of incidence rates and relative proportion of notified cases. In paper 2, was used as a source of data, the research "Evaluating the process of spatial and epidemic diffusion of HIV in the federal units of Brazil-Northern Region" in 2008. Furthermore, Statistical Techniques of Cluster Analysis, Analysis of Variance, Chi-Square and Logistic Regression were applied. In this paper, it was found that, in Brazilian Regions, the prevalence of reported cases occurred among heterosexuals in men 20-40 year age group and residing in metropolitan areas. It was observed a significant spatial correlation of the incidence rate of reported cases of HIV. It was also noted by the results that have good knowledge and awareness about HIV does not imply, essentially, in a safe sexual intercourse. These results have shown the need public policies geared to the guiding of society, based in educational strategies aiming both information about the virus and its prevention, as well as public awareness for safe sex practices or in stable or not intercourses

Trajetória de pessoas com AIDS em situação de vulnerabilidade social: à luz da história oral de vida

The epidemic caused by HIV presents a global, dynamic and unstable phenomenon, which depends on the individual and collective human behavior. Efforts to deconstruct the stigmatized image caused by infection of AIDS are still often associated with adoption of socially unacceptable behavior to be a circumscribed the susceptibilities of vulnerable individuals and communities to infection, illness and death by HIV. This study aimed to: narrate the trajectory of life of people with AIDS more vulnerable enrolled in the Municipal Social Assistance Parnamirim / RN. It is a study of qualitative, exploratory and descriptive approach, taking oral history of life as technical and methodological framework. The colony consisted of 186 people with AIDS. The network was comprised of 13 employees of both sexes, aged between 19 and 62 years old with positive diagnosis and agreed to voluntarily participate. After approval by the Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (CEP / UFRN), in the opinion No. 719,926 CAAE: 30408114.5.0000.5537 on 6 June 2014 data were collected from August to September 2014. The employees signed the Informed Consent and Informed and letter of assignment. Held transcribing the interviews and later returned to respondents to retest, ie so that they confer what allowed us to carry out transcreation after consecutive readings. The reports were analyzed through Bardin content analysis. Guiding the analysis of the accounts of employees, we find three themes: Prejudice and discrimination in living with AIDS; Reacting to the diagnosis and the accession process to antiretroviral treatment; and religious coping in people with AIDS. It can be concluded in this study, that employees have shown great emotional impact after positive diagnosis for HIV / AIDS, especially with regard to social life, the family ties, work and above all to the prejudice of society. Treatment with antiretroviral drugs was seen as a motivation to regain dreams and plans for a future once uncertain, and even if it is not a cure therapy, provided the employees improved quality of life.

Vulnerabilidades de gênero, práticas culturais e infecção pelo HIV em Maputo

A construção social do gênero feminino em Moçambique está baseada na submissão ao homem, influenciando a vulnerabilidade de gênero à infecção pelo HIV. Objetivou-se analisar a percepção de pessoas vivendo com HIV/aids (PVHA) e de profissionais de saúde (PS), da cidade de Maputo, em relação à vulnerabilidade de gênero e infecção pelo HIV. Participaram 33 PVHA e 15 PS, selecionados por conveniência, mediante a realização de grupos focais e de entrevistas semiestruturadas. Dois eixos temáticos nortearam a análise: vulnerabilidade de gênero e práticas culturais tradicionais. A análise de conteúdo dos relatos verbais permitiu concluir que a vulnerabilidade feminina é maior, segundo a quase totalidade dos participantes, delineando categorias como submissão da mulher, dificuldade para negociar o uso do preservativo e influência das práticas culturais. O estudo possibilitou compreender melhor o contexto de vulnerabilidades que afetam cidadãos de Maputo, em especial as mulheres, em um país de prevalência elevada da epidemia. ____________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT

Atenção Integral ao paciente portador de HIV/AIDS: análise do acompanhamento realizado em uma unidade básica de saúde

O estudo é uma análise do acompanhamento clinico realizado em pacientes portadores de HIV/AIDS em uma dada comunidade durante o ano de 2014. O estudo foi feito na área de abrangência da equipe Safira do Centro Municipal de Saúde Fernando Antonio Braga Lopes, localizado no bairro do Caju, no município do Rio de Janeiro. Foram analisados 13 indivíduos soropositivos adultos com dados secundários disponíveis no sistema de informações de agravos de notificação (SINAN) do Ministério da Saúde. Os pacientes tinham o diagnóstico de HIV/AIDS. A análise foi feita com vistas a analisar se todos tinham recebido atenção integral. A informação foi obtida através do programa informatizado Medicine One. A taxa de incidências de pessoas com atendimento clínico, prevalência, distribuição do número absoluto, porcentagem e media, em consulta de atenção primária com manejo segundo protocolo nacional, tem 100 % casos da indicação Cd4, carga viral com respectivo encaminhamento a infectologista para tratamento antirretrovirais. Providente grupo muito confidencial com referencia estigma e discriminação para sua vida cotidiana, a maior parte dos casos novos diagnosticados com HIV/aids referem conduta sexuais homo/bisexuais, masculinos de nacionalidade brasileira. As idades correspondem de 20 a 49 anos, com prevalência de casos infectados, sem casos por transmissão vertical.

Dyspareunia In Hiv-positive And Hiv-negative Middle-aged Women: A Cross-sectional Study.

To evaluate whether dyspareunia is associated with HIV status in menopausal women and also to assess which factors are associated with dyspareunia in a group of HIV-positive menopausal women. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 178 HIV-negative and 128 HIV-positive women aged 40-60 years. The Short Personal Experiences Questionnaire (SPEQ) was used to collect data. Sociodemographic, clinical, behavioural and reproductive factors were evaluated, as well as factors related to the HIV infection. Dyspareunia was defined as pain during intercourse. A bivariate analysis and Poisson multiple regression analysis were performed. Overall, 41.4% of the HIV-positive women reported dyspareunia compared with 34.8% of the HIV-negative women (p=0.242). In the HIV-positive women, bivariate analysis revealed an association between dyspareunia and having a steady partner (p=0.047); the woman's partner having undergone HIV testing (p=0.020); vaginal dryness (p<0.001); muscle/joint pain (p=0.021); physical/emotional violence (p=0.049); urinary incontinence (p=0.004); and the use of lamivudine/zidovudine (p=0.048). The Poisson multiple regression analysis found an association between dyspareunia and vaginal dryness (prevalence ratio (PR)=1.96, 95% CI 1.10 to 3.50, p=0.023) and urinary incontinence (PR=1.86, 95% CI 1.06 to 3.27, p=0.031). Dyspareunia was common in this group of HIV-positive women and was associated principally with vaginal dryness and urinary incontinence. The importance of treating dyspareunia within the context of sexual health in this group of women should be emphasised and appropriate management of this issue may reduce the likelihood of lesions on the vaginal wall, which may act as a portal of entry for other infections.

Long-term Efficacy And Safety Of Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate In Hiv-1-infected Adolescents Failing Antiretroviral Therapy: The Final Results Of Study Gs-us-104-0321.

Reports of long-term tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) treatment in HIV-infected adolescents are limited. We present final results from the open-label (OL) TDF extension following the randomized, placebo (PBO)-controlled, double-blind phase of GS-US-104-0321 (Study 321). HIV-infected 12- to 17-year-olds treated with TDF 300 mg or PBO with an optimized background regimen (OBR) for 24-48 weeks subsequently received OL TDF plus OBR in a single arm study extension. HIV-1 RNA and safety, including bone mineral density (BMD), was assessed in all TDF recipients. Eighty-one subjects received TDF (median duration 96 weeks). No subject died or discontinued OL TDF for safety/tolerability. At week 144, proportions with HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL were 30.4% (7 of 23 subjects with baseline HIV-1 RNA >1000 c/mL initially randomized to TDF), 41.7% (5 of 12 subjects with HIV-1 RNA <1000 c/mL who switched PBO to TDF) and 0% (0 of 2 subjects failed randomized PBO plus OBR with HIV-1 RNA >1000 c/mL and switched PBO to TDF). Viral resistance to TDF occurred in 1 subject. At week 144, median decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate was 38.1 mL/min/1.73 m (n = 25). Increases in median spine (+12.70%, n = 26) and total body less head BMD (+4.32%, n = 26) and height-age adjusted Z-scores (n = 21; +0.457 for spine, +0.152 for total body less head) were observed at week 144. Five of 81 subjects (6%) had persistent >4% BMD decreases from baseline. Some subjects had virologic responses to TDF plus OBR, and TDF resistance was rare. TDF was well tolerated and can be considered for treatment of HIV-infected adolescents.

Oral candidiasis in HIV+ patients under treatment with protease inhibitors

The purpose of this work was to evaluate the influence of Protease Inhibitors (PI) on the occurrence of oral candidiasis in 111 HIV+ patients under PI therapy (Group A). The controls consisted of 56 patients that were not using PI drugs (Group B) and 26 patients that were not using any drugs for HIV therapy (Group C). The patient's cd4 cell counts were taken in account for the correlations. One hundred and ninety three patients were evaluated. The PI did not affect the prevalence of oral candidiasis (p = 0.158) or the frequency of C. albicans isolates (p = 0.133). Patients with lower cd4 cell counts showed a higher frequency of C. albicans isolates (p = 0.046) and a greater occurrence of oral candidiasis (p = 0.036).

Self-disclosure of HIV diagnosis to sexual partners by heterosexual and bisexual men: a challenge for HIV/AIDS care and prevention

This study investigated the disclosure of HIV-positive serostatus to sexual partners by heterosexual and bisexual men, selected in centers for HIV/AIDS care. In 250 interviews, we investigated disclosure of serostatus to partners, correlating disclosure to characteristics of relationships. The focus group further explored barriers to maintenance/establishment of partnerships and their association with disclosure and condom use. Fear of rejection led to isolation and distress, thus hindering disclosure to current and new partners. Disclosure requires trust and was more frequent to steady partners, to partners who were HIV-positive themselves, to female partners, and by heterosexuals, occurring less frequently with commercial sex workers. Most interviewees reported consistent condom use. Unprotected sex was more frequent with seropositive partners. Suggestions to enhance comprehensive care for HIV-positive men included stigma management, group activities, and human rights-based approaches involving professional education in care for sexual health, disclosure, and care of "persons living with HIV".

High prevalence of drug-resistant tuberculosis and other mycobacteria among HIV-infected patients in Brazil: a systematic review

There is a little-noticed trend involving human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients suspected of having tuberculosis: the triple-treatment regimen recommended in Brazil for years has been potentially ineffective in over 30% of the cases. This proportion may be attributable to drug resistance (to at least 1 drug) and/or to infection with non-tuberculous mycobacteria. This evidence was not disclosed in official statistics, but arose from a systematic review of a few regional studies in which the diagnosis was reliably confirmed by mycobacterial culture. This paper clarifies that there has long been ample evidence for the potential benefits of a four-drug regimen for co-infected patients in Brazil and it reinforces the need for determining the species and drug susceptibility in all positive cultures from HIV-positive patients.
