PROPOSAL FOR MEMORY REHABILITATION, USING THE PQRST-ADAPTED METHOD, IN ILLITERATE INDIVIDUALS WITH HIV/HAND ON CART
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 10
Abstract
HIV associated neurocognitive disorder (HIV/HAND) is an increasingly present condition in individuals living with HIV on cART. This drug therapy favors longevity, but does not guarantee the individual's quality of life (especially in relation to cognitive areas, especially memory), because neurodegeneration happens even under cART. This study proposed the use of the pqrst-adapted method in illiterate individuals with HIV/HAND and the most severe form of HAND, the dementia. Two HIV+ individuals with dementia were evaluated in a period of 5 months. There was significant improvement, that is, positive memory improvement events in individuals analyzed. Neuroplasticity should be highly stimulated in individuals in which the pathogenesis does not favor an alternative topography that favor cognitive abilities.
