RESUMO

HIV infection is a global epidemic, with a prevalence of 0.8%. In Latin America, Chile, Brazil and Uruguay are the countries with the highest rates. The transgender population is the most affected (OR of 48.8 compared to the general population). Multiple bio-psycho-social factors explain these issues. The low use of condoms for pressure from the partner, the idea of reaffirmation of gender, the fear to be replaced by a cisgender person, the presence of commercial sex, among others, influence the highest rates of infection. HIV prevention measures have been implemented, but few specifically targeted at transgender people. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PreP) seems to be a new prevention alternative in this group, and the integration of support units in gender reaffirmation with units that deliver PreP could increase their adherence and coverage. In HIV (+) transgender people there is low adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART), in part due to the prioritization of hormonal treatment and the fear that ART will alter their hormonalization process. The few data that exist show that hormonalization is not affected by ART, but that some hormonal treatments could lower the levels of certain antiretrovirals. More studies must be done to evaluate the interaction between antiretrovirals and gender affirming hormone therapy.

RESUMO

Resumen La infección por VIH es una epidemia global (prevalencia de 0,8%). En Latinoamérica, Chile, Brasil y Uruguay son los países con mayores índices. Entre las más afectadas están la población transgénero (OR 48,8 respecto a la población general). Múltiples factores bio-psico-sociales explican estas cifras. Bajo uso del preservativo, la idea de reafirmación de género, el temor a ser reemplazadas(os) por personas cisgéneros, presencia de comercio sexual, entre otros, influyen en las mayores tasas de infección. Se han implementado medidas de prevención del VIH, pero pocas dirigidas en específico a personas transgénero. La profilaxis preexposición (PreP) parece ser una nueva alternativa de prevención en este grupo, y la integración de las unidades de apoyo en la reafirmación de género con las unidades que entregan PreP, podrían aumentar su adherencia y cobertura. En las personas transgénero con infección por VIH existe baja adherencia a terapia antirretroviral (TARV), en parte por priorización del tratamiento hormonal y miedo a que la TARV altere su proceso de hormonización. Los pocos datos existentes muestran que la hormonización no se afecta con la mayoría de la TARV, pero algunos tratamientos hormonales podrían disminuir las concentraciones plasmáticas y tisulares de ciertos antirretrovirales. Faltan estudios que evalúen la interacción entre antirretrovirales y tratamiento hormonal de reafirmación de género.

RESUMO

RESUMEN La demanda de atención de salud en personas transgénero está creciendo. Existe escasa información del conocimiento de los médicos sobre el trato en la atención sanitaria de estas personas y sus necesidades. Se realizó una encuesta a médicos (as) en Chile sobre su oportunidad de atención a estas personas, su conocimiento sobre las normativas de trato a esta población y percepción sobre acceso a tratamientos de readecuación sexual. De 123 encuestados, edad promedio 41 años, 56% había atendido a alguna persona transgénero, 4,3% manifestó rechazo u odio en esa atención, 84% nunca tuvo alguna formación respecto al tema en su formación universitaria, 96% se mostró interesado en recibir información respecto al tema, 77% desconoce la existencia de normativas de trato a estas personas, 18% rechaza gasto de salud en apoyo a su proceso de readecuación sexual, 14% no usaría el nombre social en el trato con estos pacientes y 10% hospitalizaría a un paciente transgénero según su sexo biológico y no según su sexo sentido. Los médicos en Chile reciben escasa formación respecto al trato y las necesidades de salud de la población transgénero, pero están interesados en que se les entregue información respecto al tema. La mayoría están a favor de que personas transgéneros tengan la oportunidad de recibir apoyo médico en la atención sanitaria pública, en su proceso de reasignación de sexo hormonal y/o quirúrgica.


ABSTRACT The demand for health care in transgender people is growing. There is poor information on physician knowledge about the treatment of these people and their needs. A survey was conducted to physician in Chile about their opportunity to care for these people, their knowledge about the rules of treatment of this population, and their perception of access to sexual rehabilitation treatments. 123 respondents, average age 41 years, 56% had attended some transgender people, 4.3% expressed rejection or hatred in that attention, 84% never had any training on the subject in their university education, 96% were interested in receiving information on the subject, 77% are unaware of the existence of treatment regulations for these people, 18% reject health spending in support of their sexual rehabilitation process, 14% would not use the social name in dealing with these patients and 10% would hospitalize a transgender patient according to their biological sex and not according to their felt sex. Physician in Chile receive poor training regarding the treatment and health needs of the transgender population, but are interested in being given information on the subject. The majority are in favor of transgender people having the opportunity to receive medical support in public health care, in their process of reassignment of hormonal and / or surgical sex.
