Abstract

Access to antiretroviral treatment is one of the most important tools for the control of HIV transmission, as well as to achieve a quality life in people living with this virus, however, the resistance to treatment and the consequent virological failure they are the main fear we have today, it has a relationship not only with the high replicative capacity of the virus, but also due to inadequate viral exposure to antiretroviral drugs, which promotes the appearance of mutated and resistant viral strains.


We conducted a non-experimental, cross-sectional and retrospective review of files, managing to evaluate 37 clinical and epidemiological characteristics that could represent risk factors for TARV resistance. We were able to study a total of 48 patients with resistance to antiretrovirals treated at the Clinic of TARV of Colon in the years 2016-2017


Data were recorded from 48 patients, 52% women and 48% men, 60% being between 30-50 years of age, and 50% being black. 40% had between 6-10 years of diagnosis and 69% started TARV in the first 24 months of diagnosis. 44% presented resistance in the first 5 years of receiving TARV. Only 13% presented a university education. 66% had heterosexual relationships.


We found that in addition to poor adherence, factors such as the onset of TARV, diagnosed years, viral load levels and CD4 +, opportunistic diseases, having been an AIDS stage, may represent a risk factor for the appearance of resistance to antiretroviral drugs.
