Abstract

[b]Objectives: [/b]To estimate the burden of disease by AIDS in the assure population in EsSalud in the years 2002 and 2003. [b]Material and methods: [/b]Disease burden was measured in disability adjusted life years (DALYs). DALYs were computed by adding years of life lost (YLL) to years lived with disability (YLD) by AIDS. The sources used to the YLL estimate EsSalud Mortality Surveillance System and the base of dates of Survey of EsSalud insurance and collection management, to the, YLD estimate were used the base of dates of AIDS EsSalud Surveillance System, bibliographic source and the disability pondered map of global study of the burden of disease by Latin America. The data processing did in the first moment to exam the technical with informatics package DISMOD II and the AVISA estimated the Ges Mor software. [b]Results [/b]: In 2002 and 2003 lost 4,932 and 4747 DALYs by AIDS in the assure population with AVISA rate of 7.03 and 6.36 by 10,000 assure people respectively. The mayor relative weigh of DALYs was by the life lost component more than disability, male sex gave the 70% and 60% percent of DALYs estimated and more affected age was from 15 to 44 years old. According the proceeding, the Lima-Oriente Macro Region was where lost 70% percent of DALYs assure population national level. [b]Conclusions:[/b] The application of the burden of disease method, permitted characterize to AIDS to integrated mortality, mobility and disability components. The DALYs estimated show the AIDS is highly mortal in the assure population and the affected group create an important economical shock by that is essential to establish strategies direct to prevention and intervention cost effective to this epidemic control.
