| Publication Abstract Display | | Type: Poster | | Title: Less resilient older HIV-infected persons evidence
instrumental activities of daily living declines. | | Authors: Rooney A, Badiee J, Grant I, Moore DJ, and the HNRP Group | | Date: 11-06-2012 | | Abstract:§Findings suggest that older HIV-infected persons
report lower levels of resilience as compared to
older HIV-uninfected persons
§Lower levels of resilience among older HIVinfected
individuals were associated with greater
levels of IADL dependence
§Given that HIV disease characteristics were
comparable between the IADL dependent and
independent groups, resilience may be an
important determinant of daily functioning above
and beyond HIV disease severity
§ More fully powered studies are needed to examine
the association between resilience and daily
functioning outcomes in the older HIV-infected
population. |
