ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>The purpose of this study is to get to know the intervention services implementation status of prevention of mother to child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV/AIDS in China, and the trend of recent five years.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We carried out relevant surveys and investigations among the areas where PMTCT work had been implemented during January 2005 to December 2009. Health providers in these fields provided routine maternal health care, HIV counseling and test for 10 360 655 pregnant women and comprehensive intervention measures to 10 123 HIV infected pregnant women which included antiretroviral (ARV) drugs usage, safety delivery, and exclusive breastfeeding, and collected relevant data and materials to analysis the ratio of main interventions and its change trend.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The HIV/AIDS counseling rate was increasing year by year (χ(2)(trend) = 3184.5, P < 0.001), during 2005 to 2009 the rate was 69.8% (406 151/581 975), 84.5% (1 346 745/1 594 579), 90.3% (1 582 757/1 753 191), 93.7% (1 926 224/2 055 232), 82.3% (3 599 228/4 375 678) respectively. HIV/AIDS test rate was increasing (χ(2)(trend) = 146 194.7, P < 0.001), the rate from 2005 to 2009 was 57.8% (336 459/581 975), 80.8% (1 287 812/1 594 579), 87.0% (1 524 595/1 753 191), 89.2% (1 833 246/2 055 232), 85.5% (3 741 337/4 375 678)respectively. The total number of HIV/AIDS infected maternities was 10 123 during 2005-2009, 6156 of them delivered, the general usage rate of ARVs was 71.0% (4373/6156), and increasing to 75.3% (1554/2065) by the end of 2009, the rates of 2005 to 2008 were 64.6% (362/560), 66.9% (623/931), 66.7% (857/1284), 74.2% (977/1316) respectively. The difference was significant (χ(2)(trend) = 47.6, P < 0.001). The proportion of using ARVs during pregnant period was 58.5% (2557/4373). The proportion of using ARVs among born infants of HIV infected maternities was 83.4% (4999/5994), and increasing yearly, 77.2% (409/530) of 2005, 80.1% (720/899) of 2006, 83.8% (1053/1257) of 2007, 89.4% (1116/1249) of 2008, 82.6% (1701/2059) of 2009, the difference was significant (χ(2)(trend) = 13.0, P < 0.001). The general rate of exclusive breastfeeding was 92.9% (5276/5681) and the rate of HIV test in 18 months was 74.6% (2482/3324).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The rate of HIV/AIDS counseling and test of general maternities is increasing and the proportion of mainly intervention measures have been increased year by year.</p>
