Abstract

Aim: To evaluate the quality of life and the nursing diagnoses of women with AIDS.
Methods: Cross-sectional study involving 70 women with AIDS in outpatient follow-up. The sociodemographic and clinical form and the Brazilian version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life - HIV instrument were used for data collection. Nursing diagnoses were determined according to NANDA-I Taxonomy II. The analysis was performed using the Software Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 18.
Results: The majority of women were 18 to 59 years old (98.6%), heterosexual (97.2%) and had an undetectable viral load (54.3%). They presented intermediate quality of life in all domains of the scale and 14 nursing diagnoses were found, especially the Pattern of Ineffective Sexuality, Fear and Death Related Anxiety.
Conclusion: Women with AIDS presented intermediate quality of life, requiring integral and holistic nursing care.
