Resumo: | In 2008, a survey was applied to a probabilistically selected sample of 1,245 HIV-infected patients on antiretroviral therapy in Brazil. In this work, the analysis was focused on self-rated health. The analysis was conducted according to sex, age, socioeconomic variables, and clinical and treatment-related patient characteristics. Through stepwise logistic regression procedures, the main predictors of good perception of health status were established. Results showed that 65% self-rated health state as good or excellent, 81% do have no or slight difficulty in following treatment, but 34% men and 47% women reported intense or extreme degree of anxiety/worry feelings. Educational level, work situation, presence of side effects and AIDS-related symptoms were the main predictors of good self-perception of health. Problems related to animus status, involving worry and anxiety about the future are still barriers that must be overcome to improve quality of life of people living with HIV/AIDS. |

No presente trabalho, foram investigadas associações da autoavaliação da saúde com sexo, faixa etária, nível socioeconômico e características do paciente. Para as análises multivariadas foram utilizados modelos de regressão logística, tendo como variável resposta a autoavaliação boa ou excelente. Os resultados mostram que 65% autoavaliaram sua saúde como excelente ou boa, 81% relataram nenhuma ou pouca dificuldade em seguir o tratamento, porém, 34% dos homens e 47% das mulheres relataram grau intenso ou muito intenso de sentimento de preocupação ou ansiedade. Nível de escolaridade, situação de trabalho, ausência de efeitos colaterais e ausência de sintomas foram os principais fatores associados à boa percepção à saúde. Problemas no estado de ânimo, envolvendo preocupação e ansiedade com o futuro, não foram ainda superados e são barreiras a serem enfrentadas para a melhoria da qualidade de vida dos pacientes de AIDS.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2011-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/4788Reports in Public Health; Vol. 27 No. 13 (2011): Supplement 1Cadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 27 n. 13 (2011): Suplemento 11678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/4788/9775https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/4788/9776Souza Junior, Paulo Roberto Borges deSzwarcwald, Célia LandmannCastilho, Euclides Ayres deinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:28:21Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/4788Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:05:31.490310Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true |
