Abstract

Y a-t-il eu un changement dans la durée d'hospitalisation des patients chez quí un SIDA a été diagnostiqué avant 1988 ou depuis 1988? Les 212 patients de cette cohorte ont eu un SIDA diagnostiqué avant le 31. 12. 1990 et ont tous été hospitalisés entre janvier 1981 et mars 1993 à l'Hôpital cantonal universitaire de Genève. Au total, les durée d'hospitalisations ne sont pas differentes selon l'année du diagnostic de SIDA, mais les patients les plus récents ont été hospitalisés à un stade d'immunosuppression plus avancé. Pour les plus anciens patients, les durées de séjour hospitaliers ont été plus longues immédiatement après le diagnostic de SIDA et plus tard au cours de l'évolution de la maladie alors que les durées d'hospitalisations des patients diagnostiqués après 1988 restaient constantes au cours du temps.
