Quality of life has received increasing attention in society, as it is very comprehensive and is able to positively or negatively influence several aspects of the lives of individuals. In the case of people living with HIV/AIDS, quality of life may suffer some impacts due to clinical, physical, functional, and mental factors. Therefore, the aim of this study is to analyze the quality of life and associated factors in people living with HIV/AIDS in the city of Santa Maria/RS and region. The study group was composed of 144 individuals with HIV/AIDS (99 men and 45 women), aged between 18 and 70 years. The information collection had as reference the database standardized in individual digital files from the Laboratory of Kinesianthropometry (LABCINE). Anthropometric data, time of diagnosis, data from the Anxiety Trait-State Inventory (IDATE), and data from the HAT-QOL questionnaire were retrieved for quality of life analysis. Descriptive statistics were used to characterize the group investigated and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test. Pearson's and Spearman's correlation coefficients were used to verify the relationship between the variables investigated. The significance level adopted was 5%. The analyses were performed using the SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) program, version 22.0. The results showed low scores in almost all analyzed domains, indicating a public with a worse QL. Average levels of trait and state anxiety were also found. We conclude that most of the public investigated has been diagnosed for up to 12 months. For the other variables studied, no statistically significant correlation could be obtained.
