HIV AND INFANT FEEDING: THE DILEMMA
![Page 12: Programmatic issues around PMTCT - Ruth Nduati Senior Lecturer Department of Pediatrics University of Nairobi.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d545503460f94a30b90/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Strategic approaches to prevention of HIV related morbidity and mortality in children
• Prevention of HIV in young women
• Prevention of unintended pregnancies in HIV infected individuals
• Prevention of MTCT transmission of HIV
• Provision of c are to HIV infected women and their families.
![Page 13: Programmatic issues around PMTCT - Ruth Nduati Senior Lecturer Department of Pediatrics University of Nairobi.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d545503460f94a30b90/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Steps in implementing a PMTCT
• Program level– Advocacy with District Health Management
Teams and other important stake holders– Consensus building on the package of services– Development of guidelines– Development of IEC materials– Development of monitoring and evaluation
tools

Guidelines to support PMTCT
• National Infant feeding policy
• Guidelines for the care of HIV infected women
• Guidelines on the use of anti-retroviral drugs
![Page 18: Programmatic issues around PMTCT - Ruth Nduati Senior Lecturer Department of Pediatrics University of Nairobi.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d545503460f94a30b90/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
IEC materials to support PMTCT
• Posters to be used within the health facility and at community level
• Take home brochures to help women initiate discussion on PMTCT
• Flip charts with detailed information to help the health worker provide accurate information
• Badges for counselors to help clients identify who they can approach for information
• Video to be used in antenatal clinic • Counseling cards on infant feeding
![Page 19: Programmatic issues around PMTCT - Ruth Nduati Senior Lecturer Department of Pediatrics University of Nairobi.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d545503460f94a30b90/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Tools for monitoring PMTCT at health facility level
• Modified antenatal card• Modified institutional registers
– Antenatal register– Laboratory register– Delivery register– Bin cards– Drug registers (maternity, MCH, pharmacy)
• New register– Counselors register
• Weekly summary sheets
![Page 20: Programmatic issues around PMTCT - Ruth Nduati Senior Lecturer Department of Pediatrics University of Nairobi.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d545503460f94a30b90/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Steps in implementing PMTCT at facility level
• Advocacy with the staff• Needs assessment to
– Determine the existing resources and gaps
– existing package of services being provided
• Development of training materials• Training of health workers• Establishment of appropriate client flow• Carrying out monitoring and evaluation
![Page 21: Programmatic issues around PMTCT - Ruth Nduati Senior Lecturer Department of Pediatrics University of Nairobi.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d545503460f94a30b90/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Factors affecting uptake of testing
• Counseling case load • Prevalence of HIV• Counseling strategy –
– Group versus one-one counseling– Opt-in versus opt-out approach to testing
• Client flow– one-stop service provision versus production
line approach
