ABSTRACT

Objective: To review some theorical and methodological considerations about coincidences and differences between cognitive functioning in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and elderly persons.
Development: HIV, furthermore to attack the immunologic system, affect the central nervous system. This nervous illness propitiates major or mild neurocognitive disorder that to take part in the social and familiar life of patients infected with HIV. Moreover, in the international HIV´s protocols of treatment, the procedures for neuropsychological assessments and rehabilitations, are infrequent. The neuropsychological disorders in patients with HIV show deficits in executive’s functions, attention and working memory, but the most important alteration is reported as a general disruption in cognitive functions, similar to neurocognitive patterns associate to elderly. This similarity implies that the protocols used with elderly persons, can be useful in the neuropsychological assessment in patient infected with HIV.
Conclusions: The neuropsychological assessment, diagnosis and rehabilitation, constitute a very important item in the integral treatment for patients infected with HIV. This conclusion is necessary to be known for international health authorities for a better access to this service.
