Resumo: The epidemic of human immunodeficiency virus / acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV / AIDS) in the elderly in Brazil has emerged a public health problem. When we refer to aging and AIDS we must consider the sexuality of older people. Research aimed to characterize and identify through the viewpoint of senior knowledge and sentiment against the HIV / AIDS. The methodology of the study was descriptive and quantitative descriptive analysis. The results of this study have said that older people have knowledge about HIV / AIDS. Only 22.2% use condoms. We conclude that prevention campaigns are not reaching the elderly. For we know that many seniors have active sex life, with more than one partner. Prevention campaigns and actions of the nursing staff should pay special attention to this fact and increase the information, so that older people can understand and adhere to the means of prevention of this disease.

Quando nos reportamos ao envelhecimento e à AIDS não podemos deixar de considerar a sexualidade das pessoas idosas. O objetivo da pesquisa foi caracterizar e identificar, através do ponto de vista do envelhecimento, o conhecimento e o sentimento das pessoas idosas diante de um acometimento pelo vírus HIV/AIDS. A metodologia do estudo foi descritiva, com análise quantitativa descritiva. Os resultados deste estudo permitem afirmar que os idosos dispõem de um certo conhecimento acerca do vírus HIV/AIDS, mas que apenas 22,2% dessas pessoas idosas fazem uso de preservativos. Conclui-se que as campanhas de prevenção parecem não estar chegando de forma efetiva até os idosos, pois sabemos que muitos deles têm vida sexual ativa com mais de uma parceira inclusive, mas sem os cuidados recomendados. As campanhas oficiais de prevenção e as ações das equipes de enfermagem devem dispensar atenção especial a esse fato e intensificar as informações, para que os idosos possam compreendê-las devidamente e aderir aos meios de prevenção a essa morbidade.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2013-12-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/1756110.23925/2176-901X.2013v16iEspecial15p261-272Revista Kairós-Gerontologia; v. 16 (2013): Número Especial 15 - Eroticism/Sexuality and Old Age; 261-2722176-901X1516-2567reponame:Revista Kairós (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPenghttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/17561/13067Araújo, Claudia Lysia Oliveira deMonteiro, Ana Cristina Silvainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2019-11-29T00:33:13Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/17561Revistahttp://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairosPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/kairos/oaikairos@pucsp.br||flalodo@terra.com.br|| contato@openjournalsolutions.com.br2176-901X1516-2567opendoar:2019-11-29T00:33:13Revista Kairós (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
