Introduction: Prevention of mother-to-child transmission activities form important part of HIV/AIDS prevention program of any community or country. Methods: Information from the PMTCT Programme from the Ministry of Health and other published literature on HIV in Bhutan were reviewed. Results: The first case of mother to child transmission was reported in Bhutan in 2001. However, the retrospective study shows that one of the earliest mothers-to- child transmissions could have taken place back in 1997. Strategies for the prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV in Bhutan have endured substantial advancement based on global scientific evidence. It is a concern as there is a slow rise in the number of HIV cases. The main modeof transmission is unsafe heterosexual practice in Bhutan. Before the planned PMTCT program, 3 children were infected. After launch of proper PMTCT program, we had all the components of effective strategies in PMCT program which have evolved with better ones with time. Due to this, MTCT was 3.2%. With undetected HIV infections, 32 children were born outside of the program and actual national MTCT rate is 5.5%. Conclusion: There is increasing number of people every year with new HIV infections. In addition, our detection gap is 45% with about 602 undiagnosed in the community. Every effort should be put forward to upscale the PMTCT program for Bhutan to eliminate Mother-to-Child transmission (MTCT) of HIV by 2020 and beyond.

Background: HIV / AIDS is still a global health problem which needs to be addressed including prevention of HIV / AIDS transmission from mother to child. Prevention of transmission is carried out by implementing the Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission or PMTCT program. The PMTCT program is considered successful in reducing the risk of mother-to-child transmission, but this has not been done well and thoroughly, various kinds of challenges have occurred in the implementation of the PMTCT program.Objective: To know the challenges that occur in implementing the PMTCT programMethod: This study uses a systematic review based on Preferred Reporting Items For Systematic Reviews & Meta-Analyzes (PRISMA) to identify all the literature published using relevant keywords.Results: challenges in implementing the PMTCT program are the lack of information on HIV treatment, lack of family support, the heavy workload experienced by health workers and the limited availability of HIV testing equipment and drug stocks.Conclusion: The success of efforts to prevent HIV / AIDS transmission from mother to child does not depend on one party only, but involves several parties, the active role of health workers in providing education and information about HIV / AIDS to mothers and their families is not enough but must be added with active roles and support from family members to HIV mothers as the primary motivator for good behavior in accordance with the guidelines for PMTCT.

The Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission of HIV (PMTCT)programme is a critical intervention to reduce the incidence of paediatric HIV infections . It is also a key intervention to decrease infant, child and maternal mortality. The optimal implementation of a sound, evidence-based PMTCT programme is essential to meet both the HIV reduction targets in the National Strategic Plan1 and to achieve Millennium Development Goals(MDGs) 4 (reducing infant and child mortality) and 5 (reducing maternal mortalty).2 Since 2001, South Africa has been implementing a programme to prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV. Since 2007, national PMTCT policy has evolved into a strong, enabling framework that should reduce vertical transmission significantly. This paper reviews the milestone studies that have contributed to our knowledge about drug regimens to reduce MTCT (mother-to-child transmission of HIV), reviews the latest South African PMTCT guidelines and the possible future changes. Strengthened / revised drug regimens for PMTCT are, essential but insufficient for measureable decreases in HIV transmission and improvements in maternal and childl health. The main challenge is implementation. Until the enhanced PMTCT policy is effectively operationalised, measureable achievements will remain elusive.

ABSTRAKPMTCT merupakan program pemerintah untuk menekan terjadinya penularan HIV/AIDS ke bayi. Inti dari kegiatan PMTCT adalah strategi mencegah terjadinya penularan HIV/AIDS dari ibu ke bayi pada ibu hamil yang telah terinfeksi HIV. Namun masih terdapat ibu HIV yang terlambat mengetahui status HIV sehingga tidak ikut serta dalam PMTCT. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui perilaku ibu HIV dalam upaya mencegah penularan HIV/AIDS dari ibu ke bayi. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Pengambilan data dilakukan pada 32 ibu HIV yang memiliki balita di Provinsi Jawa Tengah. Analisis data menggunakan analisis univariat dengan distribusi frekuensi, bivariat menggunakan Chi-Square dan Fisher Exact, dan multivariat menggunakan regresi logistik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa faktor yang berhubungan dengan perilaku ibu HIV dalam pencegahan penularan HIV/AIDS dari ibu ke bayi adalah usia bayi, waktu diketahui status HIV, waktu mulai mengikuti ARV, keikutsertaan PMTCT, waktu mulai mengikuti PMTCT, dan pengetahuan. Sedangkan faktor yang paling dominan terhadap perilaku ibu HIV dalam pencegahan penularan HIV/AIDS dari ibu ke bayi adalah pengetahuan. Dari penelitian ini, maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa pengetahuan dapat mempengaruhi perilaku ibu HIV dalam pencegahan penularan HIV/AIDS dari ibu ke bayi.Kata kunci : Ibu HIV, Pencegahan Penularan HIV/ADS dari ibu ke bayi, Provinsi Jawa TengahABSTRACTBehavior of HIV-Positive Mothers in Prevention Mother to Child Transmission of HIV/AIDS in Central Java ProvincePMTCT was government program to suppres HIV/AIDS and child. The point of PMTCT activities was a strategy to prevent HIV/AIDS transmission from mothers living with HIV/AIDS to their child. However, there were mothers living with HIV/AIDS who have been too late knowing their status HIV status so that they did not join PMTCT. This study aims to learn about HIV-positive mothers behavior in preventing of HIV/AIDS transmission from mother to child. This research was a quantitative with cross sectional approach. The data was collected from 32 mothers living with HIV/AIDS who had toddler babies in Central Java Province. Data were analyzed using univariate with frequency distribution, bivariate with chi square and fisher exact, and multivariate with logistic regression. The result showed that the variable which correlated towards behavior of HIV-positive mothers in preventing HIV/AIDS transmission from mother to child were age of child, HIV status reveal time, time of joining ARV, joining PMTCT, time of joining PMTCT, and knowledge. While, knowledge was the main variable that has considerable influence on the behavior of HIV-positive mothers. From this research, can be conclude that knowledge can affect HIV-positive mother’s behavior.Keywords: HIV-positive mothers, PMTCT, Central Java Province

Background. Male involvement is an important determinant of prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV. However, male involvement in prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV in Ethiopia is not well known.Objectives. To assess male partners involvement in prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV and associated factors in Arba Minch town and Arba Minch Zuria woreda.Methods. Community based study was conducted in Arba Minch town and Arba Minch Zuria district. Multistage sampling technique was used and data were collected using interviewer administered standard questionnaire. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to determine the presence of statistically significant associations between the outcome variable and the independent variables.Results. The level of male involvement in PMTCT program in Arba Minch town and Zuria district was 53%. Several factors appear to contribute to male involvement in the PMTCT program including age, residence, education level, knowledge on HIV, knowledge on PMTCT, accessibility of health facility, having weak perception for male involvement in PMTCT, having perception of ANC attendance being females’ responsibility, ever use of khat, and ever use of cigarette.Conclusion. Geographical accessibility of health facility and male’s knowledge on PMTCT should be improved to increase their involvement in PMTCT.

Even though Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission (PMTCT) program has been running in Indonesia since 2006, the proportion of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected pregnant women remains high in some districts in Indonesia. The PMTCT program aims to reduce transmission of HIV from mother to child. Thus it requires an examination of the PMTCT program implementation. The study was a qualitative study on PMTCT program implementation in South Jakarta, Indonesia, whereas the proportion of children with HIV positive in the area was quite high. The analysis used domain analysis by looking the implementation of PMTCT as a system consisting of input, process and output. PMTCT strategy is based on a comprehensive four-pronged strategy. This study found that scaling-up communication and education about PMTCT program from health provider to community was needed. In the first prong, there was no specific health provider for PMTCT program, it was still integrated with the MCH staff. PMTCT program did not disseminate information to the community.Therefore, it seemed that it was underutilized. In the second prong, implementation of HIV testing and counseling for couples of women living with HIV remained a bottleneck because women living with HIV felt fear to inform their HIV status to their partners. Thus, counseling and HIV testing for couples have not benefited at all. These women were unsatisfied with the quality of counseling, and the failure to provide antiretroviral treatments. This study found the low coverage and less responsiveness of PMTCT program to build a network of partners with various elements of government.

HIV infection during pregnancy is a serious problem that requires special attention because the number of case increasing every year. According to UNAIDS data, more than 36.9 million people were living with HIV on 2017. An increase of 1.8 million new cases and 940,000 deaths occurs in the same year. In Indonesia especially, there were about 630,000 HIV cases on 2017 and nearly 49,000 new cases reported. This number consists of cases of vertical transmission from mother to child during pregnancy. The government has implemented PMTCT (Prevention Mother to Child Transmission) program as a solution to reduce the number of HIV cases. Nevertheless this program has not been running well due to several barriers regarding to its implementation. This study aimed to provide an understanding of various barriers to PMTCT program implementation. A systematic review approach by PRISMA design was used to study literatures from databases. Stigma or discrimination from community and health care, experienced by HIV patients, was major barrier that impede PMTCT program. In addition, lack of support from partner or family, depression, economic factors, stigma from health workers, and health workers’ income-workload discrepancy were also significantly affected the implementation. Contrary, the active role of health workers to provide counseling and education about HIV/AIDS among community as well as to client’s families was a success key of PMTCT program.

SummaryUnderstanding care-seeking practices and barriers to prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV is necessary in designing effective programmes to address the high disease burden due to HIV/AIDS in Uganda. This study explored perceptions, care-seeking practices and barriers to PMTCT among young and HIV-positive women. A household survey (10,706 women aged 14–49 years), twelve focus group discussions and 66 key informant interviews were carried out between January and April 2009 in Wakiso district, central Uganda. Results show that access to PMTCT services (family planning, HIV counselling and testing and delivery at health units) was poor. Decision making was an important factor in accessing PMTCT services. Socioeconomic factors (wealth quintile, age, education level) and institutional practices also influenced access to PMTCT. Overall, having had an HIV test was highest when both men and women made decisions together or when women were empowered to make their own decisions. This was significant across wealth quintiles (p=0.0001), age groups (p=0.0001) and education levels (p=0.0001). The least level of HIV testing was when men made decisions for their spouses; and this was the case with family planning and deliveries at health units. Other barriers to PMTCT were fear of women and male spouses to have an HIV test and the perception that HIV testing is compulsory in antenatal clinics. In conclusion, to increase access to PMTCT among women, especially the young, poor and least educated, there is a need to empower them to make decisions on health seeking, and also to empower men to support their spouses to make good decisions. Other barriers like fear of having an HIV test should be addressed through appropriate counselling of clients.

Background: The success of any prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) program is assessed by the proportion of HIV-exposed infants that sero-convert at the end of all risk exposures. Although adopting the best feeding option for HIV-exposed infants is one of the factors that impact PMTCT outcomes, there is limited data on the assessment of PMTCT success rates based on antiretroviral interventions and feeding options. This study assesses the success rate of PMTCT service based on antiretroviral interventions and feeding options. Methods: Eighty-five HIV-infected mothers previously in care were enrolled in a prospective cohort study. Folders and structured questionnaires were used to extract data on mother-infant pair and the first CD4, count of infected mothers on enrolment at PMTCT clinic. Dry blood spot samples were obtained from exposed infants for early infant diagnosis. Results were analyzed using the SPSS software. Results: The mean age of enrolled mothers was 31.3 ± 4.4 years, and an average CD4+ T-lymphocyte count of 368.6 ± 216.2 cells/µl. Seven (8.2%) of the HIV-exposed infants were positive for HIV-1 based on early infant diagnosis results. Overall PMTCT success rate (PMTCTSR) was 91.8%. HIV-1 prevalence of 5.0%, 0% and 21.1% was found among infants of patients who opted for breastfeeding, replacement feeding, and mixed feeding respectively thus yielding PMTCT success rates of 95%, 100% and 78.9%. Pediatric antiretroviral interventions success rates in HIV-exposed infants was 95.8%, 80.0% and 66.7% based on age groups ≤ 6 months, > 6 ≤ 12 months, and > 12 ≤ 18 months respectively. Conclusion and Global Health Implications: Quality PMTCT service is vital for successful prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV. Implementation of more dynamic approaches such as adherence to option B+ guidelines in PMTCT service in our settings can further reduce mother-to-child transmission of HIV and improve outcomes.

Mother To Child Transmission (MTCT) of HIV is a major challenge in Sub-Saharan Africa due to a variety of socio-economic and political factors. In South Africa, for example, there was element of denialism by government on the fact that treatment could assist in reducing the likelihood of transmitting the virus to the baby. It was only in 2001 after the Treatment Action Campaign took the South African government to court that they were ordered to develop a programme to prevent the transmission of HIV from mother to child. The South African government established a PMTCT programme that aligned itself with the United Nations’ Millennium Goal of ensuring that all HIV positive pregnant women receive treatment in an effort to eliminate babies born with HIV. This study, therefore, explored the experiences of HIV positive mothers who enrolled on PMTCT programme at Tonga hospital. The researcher explored the participants’ understanding of the programme prior to enrolment, the extent to which they experienced the programme, the nature of support and services they received while on the programme as well as challenges they faced. All this was done with the intention and commitment to strengthening the intervention strategies for the HIV pregnant women, thereby ensuring that they receive top quality services from a group of multi skilled professionals. To achieve this, the study applied a collective case study within a qualitative approach. The population for the study was HIV positive mothers who enrolled on the PMTCT programme between June 2011 and July 2012. The sample consisted of 12 HIV positive mothers who took part in the PMTCT programme at Tonga hospital. For data collection purposes, the researcher applied semi-structured interview. Informed by the findings, the study concluded that there is lack of knowledge and understanding of the programme in the community. It further established that the clinic is situated under the ward where HIV positive patients are treated and that psycho social services are not offered to the HIV positive pregnant women. It also concluded that the women’s husbands or partners are not encouraged to be part of the programme. Consistent with the above, the study recommended that the PMTCT programme should be provided in a holistic and well integrated manner, where all health care disciplines contribute as required to make the participants’ experiences on the programme more comfortable both socially and emotionally. There should be a way to get the male counterparts of the participants more involved in the programme so as to afford them the opportunity to get first-hand information about pregnancy and what is expected of them as partners. Each health worker’s role should be clearly defined and a referral system be developed so that all services are easily accessible.

Despite good intentions and commitment from health providers, it is difficult for HIV positive pregnant women to access Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission of HIV (PMTCT) services (Skinner et al 2005:115). The aim of this research was to find out the extent to which socio-economic and cultural factors influence access to and utilization of PMTCT services. It appeared that despite having a legal plan and framework to ensure that PMTCT services are available and free, the realities confronting HIV positive women in South Africa as suggested by the literature contradicted this objective. Inevitably, these contradictions were identified as some of the main factors contributing to lack of access and inadequate utilization of PMTCT services. These factors were identified through a review of fifteen studies selected based on their relevance to the research aim. The findings were presented according to the following themes: Functioning of clinics, adherence to ART, uptake of VCT and infant feeding practices. According to research evidence, the major socio-cultural factors influencing access and utilization of PMTCT services include fear of stigma and discrimination which are related to cultural norms and practices. The socio-economic factors include transport costs, lack of food, medicines and formula milk which are all related to poverty and unemployment. The research also found that health system constraints such as long waiting times in clinics, stock-outs of formula milk, medicines and test kits influenced the utilization of PMTCT services by HIV positive women.

Background: Huge successes have been seen in the prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT) towards its elimination. Now amidst a landscape of universal antiretroviral therapy (ART), focus has been placed on different models of care to support and retain mother-infant pairs in the vulnerable postpartum phase. Methods The aim was to establish economic evidence for scaling-up approaches and models of care for PMTCT particularly during the postpartum period in Southern Africa. The economic data were collected during three studies, Safe Generations (Eswatini), MCH-ART and PACER (South Africa), using mixed bottom-up and top-down methodology. Outcomes of these studies were used to estimate the cost-effectiveness using an incremental cost effectiveness ratio (ICER, calculated by the difference in cost divided by the difference in effects) of lifelong ART in comparison to Option A (the standard of care at the time) in Eswatini; and to estimate the annual costs, costeffectiveness and budget impact of three models of care (Model I: Routine Care - mothers in general ART and infants in well-baby clinics; Model II: Integrated Care - mothers-infant pairs in integrated care in midwife obstetric unit; and Model III: Community Care - mothers in community adherence clubs and infants in well-baby clinics) in South Africa, from the provider and patient's perspectives. Costs are presented in 2019 United States Dollars (US $). Results Lifelong ART can be considered cost-effective in Eswatini with an ICER of US $984 per mother retained in care to six months postpartum. In Cape Town, South Africa, Routine Care cost US $226 per mother-infant pair per annum; Integrated Care cost US $341; and Community Care cost US $254. Annual patient costs (direct and indirect costs) for Models I-III, were US $30-55, US $23-45 and US $76 per mother-infant pair respectively. Comparatively Community Care was the most cost-effective model with an ICER of US $97 per mother-infant pair retained and mother virally suppressed. Scaling-up Community Care nationally in South Africa would require US $5 720 096 more than Routine Care, 0.2% of the total health budget for 2020/21. Conclusions This work has generated novel empirical data in the form of new cost estimates and cost comparisons across different models of care. It has also provided a unique comparison of the different models of care using a cost-effectiveness analysis; and further a novel budget impact analysis of different approaches to rolling these strategies out. This data has helped to fill the gap in the evidence base for instance lifelong ART was implemented in Eswatini as a direct result of the Safe Generations study findings. Community Care was found to be cost-effective and if scaled up nationally in South Africa would only require a small increment of the total health budget. However, we recommend a mixture of models of care to cater for the needs and preferences of patients. Decision makers can use the empirical findings to help set realistic budgets in Southern Africa and explore ideal model implementation to support mother-infant pairs in the crucial postpartum phase.

The pandemic of HIV is the most severe health challenge affecting children across the world and it is estimated that more than 90% of all HIV infections in children result from Mother to Child Transmissions (MTCT). The global target of <2% MTCT risk of HIV has still not been achieved despite the duration of the implementation of the programme and its great progress. The prevention of mother to child transmission (PMTCT) programme is a programme developed to enable health care practitioners to provide essential care to mothers in order to prevent the transmission of the virus to their infants.

Globally, approximately 600,000 infants each year are born with HIV infection in Sub-Saharan Africa as a result of mother to child transmission (MTCT) (UNAIDS, 2001). Whereas there is significant progress in reduction of mother to child transmission of HIV in Uganda, the Western Region of Uganda has low rates of PMTCT service utilization. The progress has been hampered by many factors including low male involvement (MOH, 2005). The main objective of this study was therefore to identify some of the factors that discourage men from participating in PMCT services in this region. The study was conducted in Kibaale District in the Western Region of Uganda for a period of one month in mid 2009. Data was collected using a qualitative methodology. The tools that were used for data collection were key informant in-depth interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs) guides. Data was collected from PMTCT service providers, women of reproductive age group and men whose partners had given birth during the last year (2008). For the focus groups, a purposive sample of men and women who had some children born in 2008, followed by random sampling from the list of potential subjects was used to select participants. The study sample comprised of three FGDs of women who had given birth in year 2008 and male partners of women who had also given birth in 2008. Each FGD consisted of eight participants. One FGD was with women only, the other with men only, while the third was with both men and women.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: An estimated 34 million people worldwide are infected with HIV with 52% of them being women (UNAIDS, 2011), of this figure, an estimated 3.4 million are said to be children below the age of 15years. Sub Saharan Africa accounts for up to 90% of this burden in children. Nigeria, the most populous nation is Saharan African still contributes up to 30% of the global burden of mother to child transmission of HIV which is a major source of infection in children. According to the Federal ministry of health 2010 ANC survey report, the country has a prevalence of 4.1%. The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) where Karu village is located ranked 5th among the 36 states and Federal capital territory in Nigeria with a prevalence of 8.7%. Urban prevalence is 8.6% while the rural prevalence is 8.2%. An exploratory descriptive study was conducted among women of child bearing age (18 to 49years) living in Karu village, Abuja, FCT, North central Nigeria. A semi structured questionnaire designed to assess the knowledge, attitude and practices of prevention of mother to child transmission of HIV was administered by the researcher on 120 women of child bearing age living in Karu village after obtaining their consent. The study received an ethical review and approval from FCT human research ethics committee at the Health Department of the Federal capital development agency and Stellenbosch University, ethic committee. Findings from the 120 women who gave consent to participate showed that 28.33% had sufficient knowledge of how MTCT can occur with 77% having insufficient knowledge of how MTCT occur, 51.67% of them have sufficient knowledge of how PMTCT can be achieved while 48.33% do not. Of the participant surveyed, 89.17% of them have ever been pregnant while 24.17% were pregnant at the time of the survey, the bulk of the participants were between the ages of 18 to 34 with only 22.5% of them within the age of 35 – 49 years. From this study, women in Karu village were identified to have high level of general knowledge regarding MTCT and PMTCT of HIV but in-depth knowledge of both is still insufficient among a large group of women. Health workers and mass media were identified as key sources of information regarding MTCT and PMTCT of HIV and majority of women have favourable attitude towards PMTCT interventions but practices of these interventions is still relatively low.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Ongeveer 34 miljoen mense is wêreldwyd aangetas deur MIV, waarvan 52% vroue is (UNAIDS, 2011). Hiervan is ongeveer 3.4 miljoen na bewering kinders onder die ouderdom van 15 jaar. Tot 90% van hierdie infeksie by kinders kom in sub-Sahara-Afrika voor. Nigerië, die digsbevolkte staat in sub-Sahara-Afrika, dra tot 30% van die globale las van moeder-tot-kind-oordrag van MIV, wat ’n groot bron van infeksie onder kinders is. Volgens die Federale Ministerie van Gesondheid 2010 ANC-opnameverslag het die land ’n voorkomssyfer van 4.1%. Die Federal Capital Territory (FCT), waar die dorp Karu geleë is, is as 5de van die 36 state in Nigerië geklassifiseer met ’n voorkomssyfer van 8.7%. Die stedelike voorkomssyfer is 8.6% teenoor die landelike voorkomssyfer van 8.2%. ’n Ondersoekende, beskrywende studie is uitgevoer onder vroue van vrugbare leeftyd (18 tot 49 jaar) wat in die dorp Karu, Abuja, FCT, Noord-sentrale Nigerië, woon. ’n Halfgestruktureerde vraelys is ontwerp om die kennis, houdings en voorkomingspraktyke van moeder-tot-kind-oordrag (MTCT) van MIV te beoordeel. Dit is deur die navorser toegepas op 120 vroue van vrugbare leeftyd wat in die dorp Karu woon nadat hul toestemming daartoe verkry is. Die studie het ’n etiese oorsig en goedkeuring van die FCT mensenavorsing-etiekkomitee by die Departement van Gesondheid van die federale hoofstad se ontwikkelingsagentskap en die Universiteit Stellenbosch se etiekkomitee ontvang. Bevindings van die 120 vroue wat ingestem het om deel te neem het getoon dat 28.33% toereikende kennis gehad het van hoe MTCT kan voorkom, met 77% wat onvoldoende kennis gehad het van hoe MTCT voorkom. Van hulle het 51.67% genoegsame kennis gehad van hoe PMTCT verkry kan word, terwyl 48.33% nie oor hierdie kennis beskik het nie. Van die deelnemers wat waargeneem is, was 89.17% al swanger, terwyl 24.17% tydens die opname swanger was. Die meerderheid van die deelnemers was tussen 18 en 34 jaar oud, met slegs 22.5% wat in die ouderdomsgroep 35 – 49 jaar geval het. Uit hierdie studie het geblyk dat vroue van die dorp Karu geïdentifiseer is as mense wat ’n hoë vlak van algemene kennis omtrent MTCT en PMTCT van MIV gehad het, maar dieptekennis van albei sake is steeds ontoereikend by ’n groot groep vroue. Gesondheidswerkers en die massamedia is geïdentifiseer as sleutelbronne van kennis oor MTCT en PMTCT van MIV en die meeste vroue het ’n gunstige houding teenoor PMTCT-intervensies, maar die toepassing van hierdie intervensies is nog betreklik laag.

Globally, great strides have been made in developing essential strategies and knowledge necessary to prevent vertical transmission of HIV. Retention in the Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission (PMTCT) programme is essential for the achievement of this aspiration. The study applied Mixed Method Sequential Explanatory Design to explore the factors that underscored the retention decisions of newly diagnosed HIV positive pregnant women. The study was set in the PMTCT programme in the Takoradi Government Hospital, Ghana, a lower middle income country. PMTCT records were retrospectively reviewed. Subsequently, the Appreciative Inquiry process using the 4Is terminology was applied to unearth the experiences and aspirations of mothers (n=12), midwives and Community health nurses (CHNs) (n=12) engaged in the programme. Ethical approval was granted by University of Cape Town Faculty of Health Sciences Human Ethics Research Committee and Ghana Health Service Ethics Review Committee. Retention rate at six weeks postpartum was 67.4%. Retention stories of women enrolled in the PMTCT programme reflected a life-enhancing experience in the face of a life-threatening diagnosis. Four themes were generated: Transitioning to the ‘new’ woman, Journeying with committed companions, Glimpses of triumph and Tying up the loose ends: A daring new path. The study highlighted development of hope in a seemingly hopeless situation, supportive network of family, healthcare professionals and religious leaders, and the commitment and companionship of the midwives and CHNs that culminated in the successes of the programme. ‘Healthy’ HIV-infected mothers and ‘exposed’ infants who tested negative to HIV at the end of the mother-infant pair’s journey in the PMTCT programme was evidence of the diligence of mothers, midwives and CHNs. A collaborative discussion resulted in the development of action plans to improve service delivery, enhance clients’ experiences and improve retention. The study recommends that PMTCT services should be structured to promote hope and empowerment for the clients through shared clients and healthcare professionals’ designed improvement programmes, instituting programmes that promote the emotional health of the health practitioners to sustain the programme, and promptly addressing health system challenges that contribute to disengagement.

Includes bibliographical references
Integration is an important emerging health systems issue, which has relevance to different health programmes. Improving prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT) programs in South Africa would reduce preventable maternal and infant morbidity and mortality, assist with achieving Millennium Development Goals 4 and 5, and help in the response to the WHO call for the elimination of MTCT, the new international PMTCT goal. Integrating PMTCT care into routine maternal and child health programmes has been recommended as a way to optimize PMTCT care. The Part B literature review in this dissertation examines the reasons why PMTCT programmes need to engage with integration as an issue, challenges to implementing integrated programmes, followed by a discussion of the benefits and lessons to consider in planning integrated PMTCT programmes. Theoretical concepts and frameworks such as Atun's framework, complexity, Theory of Change and innovation in health systems are discussed, as they have key relevance to the research findings. Lessons about implementing health system changes can be learned from programmes which have done so successfully. Using Case Study methodology, the process of developing the fully integrated longitudinal clinic at McCord Hospital is described in Part C, and reflections on the experience of providing integrated care are captured through qualitative interviews with the staff. Recommendations regarding innovation and change within complex systems are made, emphasizing the need to understand contexts which are receptive to change and the importance of leadership in managing change.

Magister Curationis - MCur
Background: In the South Africa, the number of HIV- positive pregnant women is rising and has resulted in more than 70,000 babies being born with HIV infection annually since the year 2000. In response to the escalating number of HIV-positive pregnant women, the Department of Health of South Africa, decided, in 2002, to implement the Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission (PMTCT) programme at 18 pilot sites in the country. An effective PMTCT programme could reduce the incidences of maternal and child mortalities in the country. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the PMTCT programme that was done in 2010 showed that, although the programme was rendered effectively during pregnancy and labour, there were still irregularities that appeared, especially during the postnatal period. Khayelitsha was the first pilot site in South Africa to provide Antiretroviral Therapy and initiate the Nurse Initiated Management of Antiretroviral Therapy (NIMART) at primary care level in the public sector. Midwives are the health professionals who render the PMTCT services to HIV-positive mothers and their babies until six weeks post-delivery. They have managed to test almost 100% of pregnant women during the antenatal period and the HIV-positive women were started on the PMTCT programme during their first visit. Aim: The aim of this study was to explore the challenges that midwives faced in rendering care to postnatal HIV-positive mothers enrolled in the PMTCT programme at the Khayelitsha Community Health Clinic in the Western Province of South Africa. Method: An exploratory design and qualitative approach was followed. The study population consisted of midwives who were rendering PMTCT services to HIV-positive mothers and their infants during the postnatal period. Purposive sampling was conducted until data saturation was reached. Six participants were included in the sample. The participants were informed about the study by means of an Information Sheet, advised that the study was voluntary and reminded that they could withdraw from the study at any time, without prejudice. In-depth, unstructured individual interviews were conducted with each of the participants. With the permission of participants, an audio tape recorder was used during the interviews to collect data, while the researcher took field notes to supplement and verify the voice recordings, after the interviews. The seven steps of Colaizzi were used to analyse the data. Six themes and sixteen sub-themes emerged during the data analysis. Trustworthinesswas maintained by using the criteria of Guba’s model, i.e. credibility, transferability, conformability and dependability. Permission to conduct the study was obtained from the appropriate ethical committees; the Department of Health, the Khayelitsha Community Health Clinic, as well as, the Senate Research Committee of the University of the Western Cape. Participants were asked to sign Informed Consent forms before participating in the study. The ethical principles of privacy, anonymity, withdrawal, confidentiality and consent were strictly adhered to. Findings: The study found several challenges faced by midwives while implementing the PMTCT programme during the postnatal period. These challenges included: the shortage of NIMART-trained staff attending to the high number of clients per day; the lack of manpower with data base systems to trace mothers who did not come back after delivery; and mothers who did not come back for postnatal appointments because of denial, non-disclosed HIV status and socioeconomic reasons. Furthermore, the participants also reported on midwives experiencing ‘burnout’ as a result of the hectic working environment at the Khayelitsha Community Health Clinic. Recommendations: There is an urgent need for all midwives in the MOU’s to be NIMART-trained. NIMART should be standardize and be the part of the curriculum that taught in all the tertiary institutions and be updated in a yearly basis as part of the in-service training or education for all practising midwives. The South African Government should introduce home visits in the PMTCT programme. Data-bases of all MOU’s and facilities that offer PMTCT services need to be synchronized and these MOU’s and facilities should all follow the same PMTCT guidelines. Further research should be done on the same topic at other clinics and MOU’s that render the PMTCT programme in the Western Cape.

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a member of the genus Lentivirus, a subgroup of retrovirus (Retroviridae), that causes HIV infection, which, if untreated, results in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and death. It was first described in 1981 during an epidemic of a previously unknown immunodeficiency syndrome in the US. The term HIV was accepted in 1986. HIV is thought to originate from simian immune deficiency virus (SIV). HIV-1 was discovered first, with the epidemic of AIDS in the US in 1981. In 1986, a related virus subsequently known as HIV-2, was identified in West Africa. The viruses differ in several aspects; HIV-1 is found worldwide, whereas HIV-2 is predominantly found in West Africa. HIV-1 is a more virulent and rapidly progressive virus; HIV-2 tends to be present in lower viral quantities and progresses more slowly. The number of people living with HIV (PLWH) rose from an estimated 9.0 million in 1990 to 36.9 million in 2014, due in part to a substantial improvement in survival rates as a result of effective anti-retroviral treatment. By 2014, annual new HIV infections had dropped to 2.0 million, down from 3.1 million in 2000, representing a decline of about 35%, although there remain an estimated 5600 people newly infected with HIV every day. It is estimated that without the global response that was mounted in 2000, notably the ‘Combatting of HIV/AIDS’ (the 6th Millennium Development Goal, which focused on halting and reversing trends for HIV by the end of 2015) there would have been six million new infections in 2013 alone. The main driver of progress has been widespread roll-out of antiretroviral treatment (ART) and behavioural change interventions, resulting in increased condom use, fewer multiple sexual partnerships, and delayed sexual debut. HIV-related deaths peaked in 2004–2005, and deaths fell by 24% between 2000 and 2014 from 1.2 million (0.98–1.6 million) in 2014 compared to 1.6 million (1.3–2.1 million) in 2000. The drop in AIDS-related mortality has been even steeper among children aged under fifteen years of age due to the enormous progress made with prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT).

ABSTRACT Background: Prevention mother to child transmission counseling and testing (PMTCT) service is primarily provided at health facility level. However, their full implementation requires strong linkages with communities. The purpose of this study was to examine contextual effect of community health centers on midwife performance in the implementation of PMTCT? Subjects and Method: This was an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design. The study was conducted at 24 community health centers in Madiun, East Java, from August to September 2019. A sample of 184 midwives was selected by total sampling. The dependent variable was implementation of PMTCT. The independent variables were age, tenure, knowledge, training, work performance, and accreditation. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple linear regression. Results: Implementation of PMTCT counseling and testing improved with tenure ≥8 years (b= 0.51; 95% CI= 0.15 to 0.87; p= 0.006), good knowledge (b= 0.61; 95% CI= 0.33 to 0.89; p<0.001), had trained (b= 0.41; 95% CI= 0.08 to 0.74; p= 0.014), good work performance (b= 0.56; 95% CI= 0.21 to 0.92; p= 0.002), and good accreditation (b= 0.49; 95% CI= 0.04 to 0.95; p= 0.031). Implementation of PMTCT counseling and testing reduced with midwives age ≥35 years (b= -0.51; 95% CI= -0.80 to -0.21; p= 0.001). Conclusion: Implementation of PMTCT counseling and testing improves with tenure ≥8 years, good knowledge, had trained, good work performance, and good accreditation. Implementation of PMTCT counseling and testing reduces with midwives age ≥35 years.

ABSTRACT Background: Early diagnosis and immediate treatment during antenatal care are highly effective in to the prevention of mother-to-child-transmission (MTCT). The World Health Organization (WHO) launched the global initiative for the elimination of MTCT of syphilis, HIV, and Hepatitis B, and developed global guidance to reduce those incidences, named the triple elimination examination. This study aimed to examine factors affecting pregnant women participation to the triple elimination examination in Semarang, Central Java, using path analysis model. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was carried out at 25 community health centers in Semarang, Central Java, from December 2019 to February 2020. A sample of 200 pregnant women was selected by stratified random sampling. The dependent variable was participation to triple elimination examination. The independent variables were intention, attitude, outcome expectation, modeling, knowledge, husband support, access to information, and distance to the health center. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by path analysis run on Stata 13. Results: Pregnant women participation to the triple elimination examination was directly increased with strong intention (b= 4.68; 95% CI= 1.50 to 7.86; p= 0.004), positive attitude (b= 2.61; 95% CI= 1.08 to 4.13; p= 0.001), strong self-efficacy (b= 1.98; 95% CI= 0.38 to 3.57; p= 0.015), modeling (b= 1.93; 95% CI= 0.44 to 3.42; p= 0.011), positive outcome expectation (b= 2.38; 95% CI= 0.69 to 4.06; p= 0.006), high knowledge (b= 1.61; 95% CI= 0.05 to 3.17; p= 0.044), strong husband support (b= 1.65; 95% CI= 0.21 to 3.09; p= 0.025), and accessible information (b= 1.85; 95% CI= 0.29 to 3.40; p= 0.020). Participation to the triple elimination examination was directly decreased with distance to health service (b= -2.15; 95% CI= -3.73 to -0.57; p= 0.008). It was indirectly affected by attitude, knowledge, outcome expectation, and access to information. Conclusion: Pregnant women participation to the triple elimination examination is directly increased with strong intention, positive attitude, strong self-efficacy, modeling, positive outcome expectation, high knowledge, strong husband support, and accessible information. Participation to the triple elimination examination is directly decreased with distance to health service. It is indirectly affected by attitude, knowledge, outcome expectation, and access to information. Keywords: triple elimination, pregnant women, path analysis Correspondence: Mei Fatimah.

Resumo:

Preventing unintended pregnancy among HIV-positive women is an effective approach to reducing pediatric HIV infection and vital to meeting HIV-positive women’s sexual and reproductive health needs. Although contraceptive services for HIV-positive women is one of the cornerstones of a comprehensive program for prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT), a review of PMTCT programs found that implementers have not prioritized family planning (FP). While there is increasing awareness about the importance of FP and HIV integration, data about FP from PMTCT clients are lacking. The Horizons Program is conducting an operations research study testing several community-based strategies to reduce mother-to-child transmission of HIV in a densely settled urban slum in Nairobi, Kenya. Strategies being piloted include moving PMTCT services closer to the population via a mobile clinic and increasing psychosocial support for HIV-positive women. This research update presents key findings about FP at PMTCT sites, including the interaction between providers and clients as well as HIV-positive women’s fertility desires and demand for contraceptives, from the baseline cross-sectional survey and qualitative interviews with postpartum women.
