RESUMEN
Objetivo. Identificar factores correlacionados con el riesgo
percibido de contraer VIH entre personas que se inyectan
drogas (PID) en Tijuana.
Material y métodos. Entre 2006-
2007 se reclutaron PID ≥18 años de edad que se inyectaron
drogas en el último año previo al estudio y completaron
entrevistas para evaluación de riesgos y pruebas serológicas
para VIH, sífilis y tuberculosis. Se utilizó regresión logística
para determinar factores asociados con alto-riesgo percibido
para la infección del VIH.
Resultados. En los 974 PID la
prevalencia de VIH fue 4.4%; 45.0% se consideró con mayor
probabilidad de infectarse con VIH en relación con otros
PID en Tijuana. Los participantes que reportaron alto riesgo
percibido participaron en comportamientos de alto riesgo
como inyectarse con jeringas usadas y transacción sexual,
y tenían menos probabilidades de haber tenido una prueba
de VIH.
Conclusiones. Reconocer el riesgo del VIH se
asoció con comportamientos de alto riesgo y marcadores
de vulnerabilidad. Los resultados apoyan los esfuerzos para
fomentar las pruebas para VIH y acceso a servicios de salud
para esta población vulnerable.
