Abstract

This study was a descriptive research aimed to compare health behaviors between people receiving antiretroviral therapy who are with and without metabolic syndrome. A sample of 230 people with HIV antiretroviral therapy was recruited at a tertiary care hospital. Data were collected by two sets of questionnaires: 1) Personal and health information form, and 2) health behaviors questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and independent t-test were used for data analysis.

The findings revealed that people with HIV in this study had fair overall health behaviors. It was found that the health responsibility is good while the physical activity, psychosocial, and health behaviors are fair. However nutritional health behaviors are relatively poor. Nutritional health behaviors were significantly different between people with HIV receiving antiretroviral therapy who are with and without metabolic syndrome (t = 2.169, p <.05). Health behaviors in terms of physical activity, psychosocial as well as overall health behaviors were not significantly different between those with and without metabolic syndrome.

These findings will be beneficial for health providers. Enhancing health promoting behaviors among people with HIV receiving antiretroviral therapy should emphasize on good nutritional health to prevent metabolic syndrome.
