Abstract


HIV/AIDS is one of the diseases that cause death in many countries, and it requires serious attention. Survival rate of the HIV/AIDS patients is determined by many factors, like viral load, CD4, age, gender, clinical stage, depression, and family support. This research was intended to discover the factors that influence the 5-year survival rate of patients with HIV/AIDS in Dr. Kariadi Hospital Semarang. This research was an observational analytic study using cohort retrospective method with 108 samples. Data is collected from medical record and then tested using chi square statistic test. In this research, patients who survived the 5 years: 48 (62.3 %) male patients, 64 (66.7 %) patients were under 45 years old, 32 (76 %) patients were clinical stage I and II, 43 (75.4 %) patients with CD4 count above 50 cell/mm3, 61 (92 %) viral load < 400 copy/ml. From the four variables (viral load, CD4, age, gender), clinical stage I-II (p = 0.010), CD4 count > 50 cell/ml (p = 0.001) and viral load < 400 copy/ml (p = 0.001) were influence the 5-year survival rate of HIV/AIDS patients. On the other hand, gender (p = 0.680) and age (p = 0.205) weren’t influence. Factors that influence the 5-year survival rate of HIV/AIDS patients in Dr. Kariadi Hospital Semarang were clinical stage I-II, CD4 count  > 50 cells/ml and viral load < 400 copy/ml, while factors that have no affect to 5-year survival rate were gender and age.
