RESUMEN

Background: Over the years, single dose Nevirapine has been the cornerstone of the PPTCT program in India. However after successful scale up of ART program, initiation of ART for the pregnant was also considered another means of reducing the risk of transmission of HIV. As there were no specific studies to demonstrate the advantages of full-course ART during pregnancy compared to single dose Nevirapine, the current study was undertaken. Objectives: To study the socio-demographic variables, effectiveness of the different interventions and factors affecting the interventions among the PPTCT program beneficiaries. Materials and Methods: As part of the retrospective cohort study the details of the HIV positive pregnant women registered at four ICTCs of Andhra Pradesh were analyzed in two groups (Nevirapine and ART). Results: Total 145 pregnant women were studied and among them, 3.4% opted for MTP, 66.2% had live-birth and 60% had normal vaginal delivery. Upon testing for HIV at 18 months, 35% babies were HIV reactive in the Nevirapine group, 17.6% babies were HIV reactive in the ART group. Interpretation & Conclusion: The findings from the present study showed higher protection among babies with mothers on ART before delivery, compared to those with single dose Nevirapine.
