SUMMARY
Integrating prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission (PMTCT) programmes
with other health services for preventing HIV infection and improving HIV outcomes in
developing countries (Cochrane systematic review)
Background
Mother-to-child transmission of HIV (MTCT) is responsible for more than 90% of HIV
infections in children. In high-income countries, the MTCT rate is less than 1% through
perinatal prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission (PMTCT) interventions.
Objectives
To assess the effect of integration of PMTCT measures with other healthcare services on
uptake compared to stand-alone or partially integrated PMTCT interventions in low- and
middle-income countries.
Methodology
Two authors independently ran the searches, selected studies, assessed methodological
quality, and extracted data.
Main results
One cluster-randomised trial was included. It compared mother-infant Nevirapine coverage at
labour ward between intervention clinics implementing rapid HIV testing and structured
Nevirapine adherence assessment and control clinics implementing informal assessment of
Nevirapine adherence. The study showed that the probability of Nevirapine coverage of
mothers and infants in the intervention arm compared to control arm increased from 0.89 at
baseline to 1.22 during the intervention period (RR 1.37, bootstrapped 95% CI, 1.041.77).
Conclusions
The included study showed significant improvement in coverage but only addressed the
labour ward aspect of PMTCT programme. This weak evidence base does not allow any
inferences regarding the effectiveness of integration of other PMTCT interventions, in other
countries or contexts. Further research is urgently needed.
