ABSTRACT
Introduction: no studies have been conducted to characterize patients with HIV/AIDS infection in Manuel Tames municipality, Guantánamo. Objective: to characterize clinically and epidemiologically the HIV/AIDS infected patients in Manuel Tames municipality, Guantanamo. Method: a descriptive, cross-sectional, retrospective study was carried out, covering the period 1988-2020. The studied population consisted of 46 patients with a diagnosis of HIV/AIDS. Variables studied were as follow: age, sex, marital status, year of the diagnosis report, clinical classification, source of information, scheme of treatment, concomitant diseases. Results: patients 25 to 35 years old were found as the most affected (n=18; 31.9%), with a predominance of males (n=28; 60.9%). Most of patients were found single (n=37; 80.4%). The most common source of information was the capitated category (n=11; 23.9%). Most patients were found in category A (n=33; 71.7%), which supports the figure that 32 patients (69.6%) had no disease associated with virus infection. The highest percentage of patients used the Dulutegravir plus Trubada treatment scheme (n=26; 56.5%). Conclusions: as an end point of the outcome it can be said that HIV/AIDS infection is a disease seen in the middle ages of life, with an increasing number of infections as the years go by. When patients maintain a correct treatment schedule, fewer concomitant diseases are observed and they remain in the clinical categories with the fewest complications.REFERENCES
