An overview of neurocognitive impairment in older people living with HIV
With improved survival among People Living with HIV (PLHIV), many are confronted with age associated comorbidities and geriatric syndromes. Neurocognitive impairment is one of the three most frequent conditions that affects quality of life of PLHIV despite achieving viral suppression. Healthcare providers face challenges in early identification of neurocognitive impairment, performing comprehensive assessment and managing older PLHIV. This paper aims to review available evidence regarding aetiology and management of older PLHIV who develop neurocognitive impairment, suggest improvements on current management and postulate future study direction. A PubMed search for original articles and Clinical Guidelines was conducted from September 2021 to August 2022 using a combination of keywords related to neurocognitive impairment in PLHIV. The citations from all selected articles were reviewed for additional studies. Older PLHIV tend to be frailer than their uninfected counterparts, are plagued with multi-morbidity and are at increased risk of cognitive impairment. The aetiologies for neurocognitive impairment are multifactorial, multi-dimensional and complex. The management of neurocognitive impairment in older PLHIV involves identifying and optimizing predisposing factors, physical function, social and psychological health with appropriate care navigation. Identification and management of neurocognitive impairment in older PLHIV through interdisciplinary collaboration among stakeholders is important. This exemplifies an integrated model of care for older PLHIV and promotes the notion of living well beyond viral suppression.
