Factors associated with self-efficacy and adherence to antiretroviral therapy in people with hiv: cognitive social theory
Abstract
Objective: to analyze adherence to antiretroviral therapy and the self-efficacy expectation in people living with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the light of social cognitive theory. Methods: cross-sectional, descriptive, epidemiological and quantitative study with people living with HIV. Data were collected from April to September 2018, through the “Cuestionario para la Evaluación de la Adhesión al TratamientoAntirretroviral” (CEAT-VIH) and the self-efficacy expectation scale, validated and developed in Brazil, where the Mann-Whitney test was used. The Poisson model was applied to assess the probability of good adherence to the CEAT-HIV tool. Results: the average age of 44 years was identified, with a predominance of men. Regular adherence was more representative. The highest median of adherence found was for the questions related to experience, effects and negative feelings. When adjusting the Poisson model, according to the CEAT-HIV tool, it appears that only education and the category related to attention, organization and planning to take antiretroviral therapy (ART) are jointly determining factors for good adherence. Conclusion: it was noticed a satisfactory non-adherence to medication treatment, a fact that is due to factors inherent to the ART, such as social vulnerability, stigma and relationships of self-efficacy expectation, undermining the maintenance of survival with greater morbidity and interfering with quality of life.
