Adherence to antiretroviral treatment (ART) remains a fundamental pillar for achieving a decrease in viral load and an increase in CD4+ T lymphocytes in patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), thereby preventing progression to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), opportunistic diseases, and death. The pandemic has brought about many difficulties, which have had repercussions in all aspects of health, especially in the management of chronic diseases such as HIV/AIDS. Objectives: To compare rates of antiretroviral treatment abandonment during the pre-pandemic and COVID-19 pandemic periods, as well as to explore factors associated with abandonment in HIV-infected patients at a level III-1 referral hospital in Lima, Peru. Methods: An observational, analytical, retrospective cohort study with secondary data analysis was conducted. All patients attending follow-up appointments were followed and selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, resulting in 1153 participants. The pre-pandemic period was defined as January 1, 2019, to March 15, 2020, and the pandemic period as March 16, 2020, to December 31, 2021. A pre-existing database obtained from clinical care was used, and privacy protection measures were taken during coding. A database for statistical analysis in STATA v.17 was created with the collected information, and frequency and percentage statistics were calculated for all categorical variables, while measures of central tendency were calculated for age, CD4+, and viral load. Results: The percentage of antiretroviral treatment abandonment from January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2021, in HIV-infected patients represented 10.67% (n=123) of the total population. When this data was disaggregated into pre-pandemic and pandemic abandonment rates, the antiretroviral treatment abandonment rate was 2.16% (n=14) and 21.58% (n=109), respectively p<0.00001 RR 9.99 [8.26 - 12.06]. Statistically significant associated factors were alcohol/tobacco consumption (p<0.001) RR de 9.187 IC95% [6.95 - 12.14] and psychoactive substance use (p<0.001) RR de 10.95 IC95% [8.64 - 13.87]. Conclusions: The rate of antiretroviral treatment abandonment in patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus during the pandemic was approximately 10 times higher than that found during the pre-pandemic period. The associated factors with abandonment were younger age, alcohol/tobacco consumption, and psychoactive substance use. CD4+ and viral load levels were similar in both years.
