Epidemiology
• Increasing Prevalence– Prolonged survival due to HAART– New Infections
![Page 11: Aging Gracefully with HIV Jonathan S. Appelbaum, MD, FACP, AAHIVS](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5697c00b1a28abf838cc8284/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Why are older patients getting infected?
![Page 12: Aging Gracefully with HIV Jonathan S. Appelbaum, MD, FACP, AAHIVS](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5697c00b1a28abf838cc8284/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Why do you think that the number of older patients with HIV is
increasing?
![Page 13: Aging Gracefully with HIV Jonathan S. Appelbaum, MD, FACP, AAHIVS](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5697c00b1a28abf838cc8284/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Why are older patients getting infected?
• Patient lack of awareness of HIV risk factors (sex and drugs)– Many older people are newly single – Belief that HIV only affects younger people
• Unprotected sexual activity– Use of sildenafil and other ED drugs may contribute to
increased rates of sexual activity – Menopause= No risk for pregnancy=No condom– No training in safer sexual activities
• Lack of HIV prevention education targeted at older people
• Seniors not considered at risk: don’t ask, don’t tell

Recommendations When to Initiate Therapy
• Antiretroviral therapy should be initiated in all patients older than 50 who have a CD4 count < 500 cells/mm3 .
• Antiretroviral therapy should be initiated in all patients older than 50, regardless of CD4 cell count, with the following conditions: AIDS-defining illness, HIV-associated nephropathy, or chronic hepatitis B virus infection.
• For patients over age 50 who have a CD4 count > 500 cells/mm3, antiretroviral therapy should be considered. Factors favoring initiating therapy include plasma HIV RNA levels greater than 50,000 copies/ml, greater than 100-point decline in CD4 count in prior 12 months, or risk factors for cardiovascular disease.

Normal Aging Process
• Loss of Bone and Muscle Mass
• Weight Loss• Decrease in GFR• Memory Loss• Immunosenescence
![Page 25: Aging Gracefully with HIV Jonathan S. Appelbaum, MD, FACP, AAHIVS](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5697c00b1a28abf838cc8284/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Treatment Issues in Older HIV Patients
• Older people may have age-related losses of kidney and/or liver function which may change metabolism of drugs
• Drug-drug interactions• Toxicities significant• Older people often excluded from
many clinical trials and few subgroup analysis in older patients
• Little pharmacokinetic data at extremes of age

Recommendations: Lipids• There is insufficient evidence to alter
current recommendations for management of dyslipidemia or CVD/ cerebrovascular disease screening by specific age criteria.

BMD Lower and Fracture prevalence higher in HIV infection
• BMD lower in HIV+ men at the femoral neck (p<.05) and lumbar spine ( p=0.06);
• Differences significant after adjusting for age, weight, race, testosterone level, and prednisone and IDU
• A 38% increase in fracture rate among HIV+ men

Recommendations: Osteoporosis Screening
• Since older patients have bone loss due to osteoporosis, and since many HIV-infected patients on ART have accelerated bone loss, screening for (and aggressive treatment of) osteoporosis should be done
• Since vitamin D deficiency is prevalent in older HIV-infected persons, screening for vitamin D deficiency is warranted

Frailty• Frailty phenotype: 3 of 5 (weight loss,
exhaustion, weakness, slowness, and low physical activity). – earlier occurrence in HIV-infected patients
• Functional status – may be better indicator
![Page 46: Aging Gracefully with HIV Jonathan S. Appelbaum, MD, FACP, AAHIVS](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5697c00b1a28abf838cc8284/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Frailty increases with age and time with HIV
Desquilbet, et al. J Gerontol Med Sci 2007;62A:1279-86
HIV-infected for 8-12 years at age 55 13.4% exhibit the frailty phenotype –
9-fold higher risk than age-matched controls

General Routine Health Maintenance
• All Medications• Tobacco/ETOH/drug use• Nutrition• Injury Prevention: Burns/Falls/Driving• Bowel Habits/Incontinence• Psychosocial issues-$, end-of-life,
social support and assisted living/SNF
![Page 51: Aging Gracefully with HIV Jonathan S. Appelbaum, MD, FACP, AAHIVS](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5697c00b1a28abf838cc8284/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Recommendations: Cancer Screening• As part of general health maintenance practices,
cancer screening in clinically stable HIV-infected patients 50 years and older should be in accordance to current guidelines for the general population.
• For cervical cancer, anal cancer, and liver cancer where HIV-specific recommendations exist, these guidelines should be adhered to instead.
• For all patients, providers should take into consideration functional status and life expectancy in applying these recommendations.
![Page 52: Aging Gracefully with HIV Jonathan S. Appelbaum, MD, FACP, AAHIVS](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5697c00b1a28abf838cc8284/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
When to stop screening• When life expectancy less than natural
history of disease: for example, colorectal cancer
• Patient desires/expectations• Current guidelines—for example, ACP
and colon cancer screening after age 75
![Page 53: Aging Gracefully with HIV Jonathan S. Appelbaum, MD, FACP, AAHIVS](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5697c00b1a28abf838cc8284/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Other Important Issues• Sexuality• Mobility• Mentation/Depression• Hearing/Vision• Activities of daily living
![Page 54: Aging Gracefully with HIV Jonathan S. Appelbaum, MD, FACP, AAHIVS](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5697c00b1a28abf838cc8284/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Conclusions• HIV infection is increasing in the older population• Older patients present later=>need to improve
testing and linkage to care• Compared to younger patients, older HIV patients
have:– Better virologic response, less immunologic boost,
shortened survival
• Psychosocial issues and advanced directives are important
![Page 55: Aging Gracefully with HIV Jonathan S. Appelbaum, MD, FACP, AAHIVS](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5697c00b1a28abf838cc8284/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Recommendations• Start older patients with ART earlier for improved CD4 counts and
reducing comorbidities– Watch closely for side effects/toxicities
• Screen for comorbid disease (but stop screening when appropriate!)– DXA for osteoporosis
– Cancer screening
– STD’s
• Avoiding comorbid disease– Vaccinations (Flu, S. pneumoniae)
– Smoking cessation, exercise, diet
– Treat lipids, HTN
• Treat Comorbid disease– SA/MH
– HCV
• Address psychosocial issues and advanced directives
