Resumen
La infección por el virus de Inmunodeficiencia Humana se manifiesta por un amplio espectro evolutivo que va desde una infección crónica asintomática hasta un estado de depresión inmune que se acompaña de múltiples infecciones recurrentes y /o enfermedades oportunistas, acompañadas de emaciación progresiva, condición denominada SIDA
Según estadísticas recientes del Programa Conjunto de las Naciones Unidas sobre el VIH/SIDA (ONUSIDA) y la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), a fines del 2014 el total de personas infectadas era de 33.4 millones, de los cuales 18.8 millones ya han muerto a causa de dicha enfermedad. Lo más alarmante y dramático de estos datos es el hecho de que cada día 1,800 nuevos niños adquieren la enfermedad, totalizando 1.3 millones de niños infectados, en la actualidad; habiendo cobrado la muerte de 3.8 millones de niños desde el comienzo de la epidemia.
La metodología se basó en un estudio tipo no experimental, transversal y observacional, debido a que se ha tomado las historias clínicas de los pacientes ingresados en la unidad hospitalaria.
El estudio se realizó con el universo de 54 pacientes, los cuales se dividieron en 32 varones y 22 mujeres. Los datos recolectados fueron divididos en: a) Datos demográficos, b) enfermedades oportunistas, c) infecciones recurrentes.
A través de la investigación se podrán identificar las enfermedades más frecuentes relacionadas con infección con VIH e infecciones recurrentes y así será posible contribuir con información confiable para el diseño de estrategias de prevención.
Infection with human immunodeficiency virus by a wide evolutionary spectrum ranging from asymptomatic infection to a chronic state of immune depression that is accompanied by multiple recurrent infections and / or opportunistic diseases, accompanied by progressive emaciation, manifests condition called AIDS According to recent statistics from the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV / AIDS (UNAIDS) and the World Health Organization (WHO), at the end of 2014 the total number of infected persons was 33.4 million, of which 18.8 million have died from the disease. Most alarming and dramatic of these data is the fact that every day 1,800 new children get the disease, totaling 1.3 million infected children today; having claimed the death of 3.8 million children since the beginning of the epidemic. The methodology was based on a non-experimental, cross-sectional observational study, because it has taken the medical records of patients admitted to the hospital unit. The study was conducted with the universe of 54 patients, who were divided into 32 men and 22 women. The data collected were divided into: a) Demographics, b) opportunistic diseases, c) recurrent infections. Through research will identify the most common diseases related to HIV infection and recurrent infections and thus be able to contribute to the design of reliable prevention strategies information.
