Objective: to investigate elderly living with HIV/Aids and health professionals, what are the reasons that lead to late diagnosis of HIV infection in the elderly. Method: prospective, qualitative study, conducted at a specialized outpatient clinic with elderly living with HIV/Aids, diagnosed age over 60 years and in the Family Health Strategy units with nurses and physicians. Data were collected through interviews and verifi ed by content analysis, using the theoretical framework of vulnerability. Results: a total of 11 elderly, 11 nurses and 12 physicians participated in the study. Three empirical categories emerged: the late diagnosis of HIV happens against the health service; invisibility of the sexuality of the elderly; and weaknesses in the anti-HIV serology request for the elderly. Conclusion: there are health professionals who see the elderly as asexual, causing the diagnosis of HIV to happen in the secondary and tertiary service instead of primary care.

RESUMOObjetivo: investigar entre os idosos vivendo com HIV/Aids e os profi ssionais de saúde, quais são os motivos que levam ao diagnóstico tardio da infecção pelo HIV nos idosos. Método: estudo prospectivo, qualitativo, realizado em ambulatório especializado com idosos vivendo com HIV/aids, diagnosticados com idade igual ou superior a 60 anos e nas Unidades com Estratégia Saúde da Família com enfermeiros e médicos. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas e verifi cados por análise de conteúdo, utilizando o referencial teórico da vulnerabilidade. Resultados: participaram 11 idosos, 11 enfermeiros e 12 médicos. Emergiram três categorias empíricas: o diagnóstico tardio do HIV acontece na contramão do serviço de saúde; invisibilidade da sexualidade do idoso; e fragilidades na solicitação da sorologia anti-HIV para os idosos. Conclusão: há profi ssionais de saúde que percebem os idosos como assexuados, fazendo que o diagnóstico do HIV aconteça no serviço secundário e terciário e não na atenção primária.

“…Since sexuality is inherent to humans and manifests itself throughout life, it is understandable that the professional considers their own values in addressing the sexuality of their patient, given the difficulty of being totally neutral on this subject. The acquisition of knowledge on the subject which should happen during their training contributes to the reduction of undue and inappropriate attitudes of professionals in dealing with patients (23) . However, the deficiency in the theme of sexuality in the elderly (14) is observed in the training of health professionals in undergraduate and post-graduate courses.…”

Objective:To identify vulnerabilities of elderly people with HIV/AIDS and the trajectory that they follow until reaching the diagnosis of the disease. Method: Qualitative research conducted in specialized clinics in the state of São Paulo, from January to June 2011. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 elderly people who were found to be infected with the virus at the age of 60 years or older. The interviews were analyzed using content analysis. Results: In this process four categories emerged, then analyzed with reference to the theoretical framework of vulnerability. Conclusion: Late diagnosis of HIV infection or AIDS among the elderly happens in the secondary or tertiary service. Issues related to sexual life of the elderly are only questioned by health professionals after the diagnosis, also the time that condom use becomes absolute. It is believed that the investigation of the vulnerability of the elderly to HIV/AIDS allows for carrying out appropriate interventions for this population.
