Abstract:

the present study aimed to identify and analyze the scientific production about behavior and knowledge about sexuality of elderly people living with HIV. An integrative review of scientific articles indexed in databases, LILACS, IBECS, MEDLINE, BDENF, PubMed and Scopus (Elsevier) was carried out, considering publicationsJanuary 2007 to December 2016, using the following descriptors: knowledge, behavior/behaviour, sexuality, Elderly, HIV / AIDS. Of 1493 articles found, 11 were included because they met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed through two instruments: Critical Appraisal Skill Program (CASP) and Agency for Healthcare and Research and Quality (AHRQ). The data suggest that HIV-positive older people are sexually active and are involved in risk behaviors of virus transmission. It is noticed that there is a limited scientific production regarding the behavior and knowledge about sexuality among the elderly people living with HIV. It is concluded that the study may contribute to improve public health policies that favor the approach on sexuality in the elderly people, as well as the achievement of new questions regarding this issue.
