Abstract(s)
Este estudo analisou as diferenças ao nível dos conhecimentos, atitudes, perceções de risco,
comportamento sexual em mulheres que realizaram o teste ao VIH versus as que não
realizaram o teste e a relação das variáveis em estudo e os preditores do teste ao VIH. Mil
quatrocentas e oitenta e oito mulheres sexualmente ativas, participaram no estudo através de
instrumento de autorrelato nos cuidados de saúde primários no ACES do Alto Ave. No geral,
54.2 % das participantes relataram nunca terem realizado o teste ao VIH. Os resultados
indicam que as mulheres que realizaram o teste apresentam maiores níveis de conhecimentos,
de perceção de risco no parceiro, conversam mais sobre o VIH e a prevenção com o parceiro,
e possuem menos barreiras face à prevenção do VIH e mais comportamentos sexuais de risco,
comparativamente com as mulheres que não fizeram o teste. O teste associou-se de modo
significativo com as variáveis em estudo. As análises da Regressão Hierárquica Logística
mostram que as mulheres com maior nível de escolaridade, casadas, com rendimento anual
mais elevado, com maior comportamento sexual de risco, com maior conhecimento de
prevenção do VIH, que conversam sobre o VIH e sua prevenção com os parceiros, que têm
maior perceção de risco no parceiro, menor perceção de risco pessoal, menor perceção de
autoeficácia na comunicação, possuem maior probabilidade de realizar o teste ao VIH. O
modelo na totalidade explicou 21.6% da variância no teste ao VIH. Realizar o teste do VIH no
decorrer da vida é promover uma prevenção longitudinal e não esporádica.
This study examined the differences in the knowledge, attitudes, perceptions of risk, sexual behavior in women who underwent HIV testing versus those who did not undergo the test and the relationship of the variables under study and test predictors of HIV. Thousand four hundred eighty-eight sexually active women participated in the study through self-report instrument in primary health care in the ACES Alto Ave. Overall, 54.2 % of participants reported never having done the HIV test. The results indicate that women who take the test have higher levels of knowledge, risk perception in partner, talk more about HIV and prevention with a partner, and have fewer barriers face HIV prevention and more risk sexual behavior compared with women who were not tested. The test significantly associated themselves with the variables as in study. Analyses of Hierarchical Logistic regression show that women with higher levels of education, married, with higher annual income, with increased sexual risk behavior, with higher HIV prevention knowledge, to talk about HIV and its prevention with partners who are at increased risk perception of the partner, lower perception of personal risk, lower perception of self-efficacy in communication, are more likely to perform HIV testing. The model entirely explained 21.6 % of the variance in HIV testing. Perform HIV testing throughout life is to promote a longitudinal and not sporadic prevention.
