HIV/AIDS dengan proporsi penularan dari ibu ke bayi sebesar lebih dari 1% di masyarakat merupakan indikator dari kondisi generalized level. Kondisi ini merupakan keadaan gawat darurat dimana penularan dari ibu ke bayi sudah sangat tinggi. Papua dan Afrika merupakan contoh daerah dengan generalized level. Program PMTCT adalah salah satu upaya pemerintah untuk mencegah meluasnya penularan HIV dari ibu ke bayinya utamanya saat ibu sedang hamil atau bersalin. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menggambarkan evaluasi penerapan PMTCT pada ibu rumah tangga dengan HIV di Jawa Timur. Penelitian ini merupakan studi kualitatif dengan teknik sampling non randome yaitu purposive sampling. Terdapat 6 orang ibu rumah tangga dengan HIV dari 6 kota/kabupaten di Jawa Timur, dan terdapat 6 petugas KPA, program dan LSM yang menjadi responden untuk triangulasi. Instrumen dalam penelitian ini adalah in depth interview. Hasil penelitian ini adalah sebagian besar kegiatan dari prong 1 sampai prong 4 program PMTCT telah dilaksanakan sesuai Permenkes RI No 51 Tahun 2013 tentang Pedoman Pencegahan Penularan HIV dari Ibu ke Anak. Namun ada beberapa aspek yang masih kurang baik dalam pelaksanaan PMTCT terutama follow up bagi ibu yang negatif HIV dan home visit yang perlu perhatian khusus dari pemegang kebijakan program.

The transmission of HIV/AIDS from mother to child is the main cause of HIV/AIDS in children and child mortality. Two-thirds of children with HIV/AIDS are infected in the intrapartum period (Farley, 2000:1-2). Midwives, through effective practices, can lower the transmission of HIV/AIDS from mother to child in the intrapartum period. The aim of the study was to determine which preventive practices registered midwives in provincial labour wards in Bloemfontein, implement to lower the risk of mother to child transmission of HIV/AIDS and in doing so to lower child mortality.

Hiv Aids

Globally, around 34 million people are living with HIV in 2010, and 35% of the pregnant women are tested for HIV in the low and middle income countries. HIV infection in pregnancy has become a complication of pregnancy in some developing countries. This has major implications for the management of pregnancy and birth. A cross sectional study was conducted from December 2018 – February 2019 in tertiary care hospital, VIMSAR Burla . The present study was conducted to assess the knowledge about HIV/AIDS and mother to child transmission issues among women seeking antenatal care and visiting ICTC. A sample of 150 pregnant females was used to accomplish the study. A pre- tested semi-structured questionnaire was used to gather information on the study variables. The questionnaire included variables related socio-demographics e.g., age, education status, occupation, residence, awareness about HIV/AIDS. The study reflected that 83.4% of the women had heard of the term HIV/AIDS which reflects a relatively high level of awareness about the term but subsequently dropping levels of awareness about the routes of transmission, laboratory diagnosis and the availability of drugs. Only 45.3% of the respondents were aware of ICTC. 42.7% were aware about mother to child transmission of HIV and only 32% were aware of anti-retro viral therapy for newborn.
