É uma doença silenciosa que possui grande relevância para população idosa.Objetivo: Este estudo objetivou analisar os conhecimentos sobre o HIV/AIDS na população de idosos usuários do SUS no município de Garanhuns/PE.Materiais e métodos: Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa realizada no mês de junho de 2014, através de entrevistas com idosos assistidos em 3 Unidades de Saúde da Família (USF) situadas na zona urbana do município de Garanhuns/PE.Resultados: Os resultados mostraram que os idosos tinham um conhecimento escasso sobre o assunto, alguns discriminavam o portador de HIV/AIDS, outros associavam a doença ao câncer, e mesmo aqueles que conheciam a importância do uso da camisinha, para prevenção da contaminação pelo vírus, relataram nunca ter usado.Conclusões: Conclui-se com este estudo que os resultados alertam para a necessidade de a Estratégia Saúde da Família proporcionar ações voltadas ao público idoso, com o objetivo de orientá-los para prevenção do HIV/AIDS e outras DST’s, promovendo Educação em Saúde e debatendo temas relacionados à sexualidade.Universidade LaSalle - Unilasalle CanoasVasconcelos, Tathyana Semirámys Albuquerque SilvaGomes, Wanessa da SilvaGalindo, Renata AlvesAustregésilo, Silvia Carréra2018-09-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/view/391410.18316/sdh.v6i2.3914Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano; v. 6, n. 2 (2018); p. 25-32Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano; v. 6, n. 2 (2018); p. 25-322317-8582reponame:Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humanoinstname:Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)instacron:UNILASALLEporhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/view/3914/pdfDireitos autorais 2018 Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humanoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-04-06T12:24:21Zoai:ojs.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br:article/3914Revistahttp://www.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimentohttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/oaisdh@unilasalle.edu.br2317-85822317-8582opendoar:2022-04-06T12:24:21Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano - Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)false
