Objective: To describe antiretroviral treatment regimens prescribed and their compliance with the Clinical Protocol and Therapy Guidelines of the Ministry of Health for the management of HIV infection. Methods: Observational and descriptive study. Secondary data of the state of Paraná (Brazil) on drugs, treatment regimens, lines of treatment and number of individuals on treatment, from January to June 2018, were accessed at the Antiretroviral Agents Logistic Control System. Combinations of antiretroviral drugs (treatment regimens) were compared according to the current Clinical Protocol and Therapy Guidelines and non-compliances were classified and quantified. Results: In Paraná, 35,127 individuals with HIV were treated with 253 different treatment regimens. Of the prescribed regimens, 19.1% were first-line, 27.4% second-line and 48.5% third-line. Among non-compliances, the most prevalent were absence of association of protease inhibitors and ritonavir (42.8%), low efficacy triple therapy (36.9%), double therapy (26.1%), monotherapy (20.3%), and triple therapy of nucleoside analog reverse transcriptase inhibitors (17.1%). Conclusion: Most individuals receiving HIV treatment in the state of Paraná are on treatment regimens established in the current Clinical Protocol and Therapy Guidelines, which contributes to successful therapy. However, associations not provided by the current Clinical Protocol and Therapy Guidelines were identified in the initial treatment lines, which could lead to ineffectiveness, virologic failure and viral resistance.
HC/UFPR accounted for 46.0% of these procedures performed in Paraná. There were no significant variations in the sex distribution (p=0.788) and number of HSCT (p=0.213). 59.5% of the patients were from PR, 49.4% were between 0 and 17 years old, 79.9% were white, and 63.5% were male. The allogeneic HSCT was the most performed procedure (88.5%). 58.5% were hospitalized from 31 to 60 days (mean=37.6 days). 9.1% died. Acquired aplastic anemia was the most common underlying disease (31.9%). Conclusion: HSCT is a procedure of high cost and complexity. The study and the understanding of the determinants of its success are of extreme importance for the best planning, risk estimation and elaboration of public health policies.
