The effectiveness of prevention of mother-to-child of HIV (PMTCT) programmes depends on the successful coverage of a series of interventions through pregnancy, intrapartum and postpartum. Routine monitoring systems based on service data and limited to women on the PMTCT programme may overestimate intervention coverage at multiple points along this cascade. Methods: Cord blood specimens with individually linked anonymous demographic and pregnancy data were collected from three delivery services in the Western Cape Province, South Africa, and screened for HIV. Seropositive specimens were tested for the presence of antiretrovirals. 2015-04-02T13:59:44Z 2015-04-02T13:59:44Z 2012 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12644 eng application/pdf Department of Public Health and Family Medicine Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town |
