    Prevention of Perinatal HIV ● With maternal diagnosis and prophylaxis

    during the perinatal period, perinatal HIV transmission is usually preventable in all but 2% or less cases

    ● In order to reach this goal, HIV testing and antiretroviral (ARV) prophylaxis and treatment are essential

    Reproductive Health Care:Goals of Preconception Counseling

    Improve the knowledge, attitudes and behaviors of men & women related to preconception health.

    Assure all women of childbearing age in U.S. receive preconception care that will enable them to enter pregnancy in optimal health.Reduce risks indicated by previous pregnancy which can prevent or minimize problems for mother and her future children.Reduce the disparities in adverse pregnancy outcomes.

    HIV Testing

    Patients routinely tested for HIV should include: 

    • All patients aged 13‐64 years

    • All patients initiating treatment for TB

    • All patients seeking treatment for STDs during each visit for a new complaint, regardless of specific behavioral risks for HIV infectionCDC. Revised recommendations for HIV testing of adults, adolescents, and pregnant women in healthcare settings. MMWR 2006;55(RR14);1-17.

    HIV TestingHIV testing should be: • Voluntary and with the patient's knowledge that HIV testing is planned

    • Provided as an opt‐out healthcare  service• Accompanied with information, including an oral and/or written explanation of HIV infection and the meanings of positive and negative test results

    • Consented for in the same way as other screening or diagnostic tests

    • Declinations should be documented in the medical record.

  • 10/27/2014

    11

    HIV Testing• Test all persons at high risk for HIV at least annually

    – High risk populations include: MSM or heterosexual persons who have had more than one sex partner since their last HIV test, injection‐drug users, sex workers, and sexual partners of people at high risk or with a diagnosis of HIV

    • For those at lower risk, repeat testing should be performed based on clinical judgment

    • Encourage patients and their prospective partners to be tested before initiating a new sexual relationship

    HIV Testing in Pregnancy

    • Test women as early as possible during each pregnancy

    • A second HIV test during the third trimester, preferably 

  • 10/27/2014

    12

    HIV Testing in Labor and Delivery• Women with undocumented HIV status in labor should be screened with a rapid/expedited HIV test

    • Women with unknown status after delivery should be screened immediately postpartum 

    • If the rapid/expedited test is reactive, immediately initiate antiretroviral prophylaxis. Do not wait for the result of a confirmatory test.

    Recommendations for 3rd Trimester Repeat HIV Testing

    ● In jurisdictions with an elevated incidence of HIV/AIDS among women

    ● Women known to be at high risk for HIV

    ● Facilities that identify HIV infection in at least 1/1,000 women screened

    ● Women who have signs or symptoms of acute HIV infection (acute retroviral syndrome)

    19

    Why Aren’t All Pregnant Women Tested?

    • Provider• Language barriers • Late entry or no prenatal

    care • Patient perceived as not at

    risk• Provider does not strongly

    recommend testing to all women

    • Patient• Women’s reasons for not

    being tested– Do not think they are at

    risk– Have been tested

    “recently”– Test not offered or

    recommended

    • Negative consequences of testing rarely mentioned

    Case Study #1

    • Lisa and her partner Joseph are expecting their first baby. Lisa is 11 weeks pregnant and this is her first visit. She reads a pamphlet in the waiting room.

    • When you offer HIV testing to Lisa as part of her prenatal testing she tells you “I don’t need HIV testing. I haven’t been with anyone but Joseph and I don’t do drugs”

    • How do you proceed?• If the case scenario changed and she accepted and said she tested negative, how would you proceed?

    I’m HIV positive and pregnant…now what?

    Perinatal HIV Transmission● Without ARV drugs during pregnancy, risk of

    transmission from mother to infant is 1 in 4● Pediatric AIDS Clinical Trials Group (PACTG) 076

    found that by giving zidovudine (ZDV) to the pregnant woman during pregnancy, labor, and delivery, and to her newborn, transmission could be reduced to 8%

    ● The risk of perinatal transmission can now be less than 2% (1 in 50) with:● Highly effective ARV therapy (HAART)●Elective Cesarean section as appropriate ●Formula feeding

    13

    Assuming No Interventions:

    Reproductive Health Care:Preconception/Postconception Opportunities

    (ACOG, 2006)• Optimize maternal HIV stability.• Choose “safe” ARV’s• Ed/Counsel HIV MTCT risks.• For HIV Discordant Couples discuss

    optimal risk reduction techniques.• Evaluate need for vaccination/OI

    prophylaxis.• Optimize Nutritional Health• PNV/Folic Acid.• Genetic Screening/Compile OB History.

    Timing of Perinatal HIV Transmission: Non-Breastfeeding Women

    ● Intrauterine (before 36 weeks) ~20% of cases● Virologic detection of HIV in newborn at 1–2 days of life

    ● Peripartum ~80% of cases● Onset of placental separation● Mother-to-fetus microtransfusions● Labor and rupture of membranes

    ● Most transmission occurs close to or during labor and delivery (L&D) 14

    A Healthy Pregnancy: The Mother

    HIV viral load monitoring • Initial visit • 2‐4 weeks after ART is started or changed• Monthly until HIV is undetectable• Every 3 months throughout pregnancy• At 34‐36 weeks gestation  HIV drug‐resistance testing with ART initiation and regimen changesCD4 monitoring every trimester Selecting, monitoring, and changing ART

    Monitoring and PlanningMonitoring • Infant growth and development • Maternal complications

    Plan for Labor & Delivery• Vaginal delivery recommended if HIV viral load 1,000 at 38 weeks• IV zidovudine (AZT) recommended (BIII) if HIV viral load >400• Avoid procedures that increase transmission risk:

    – Rupture of membranes (natural or artificial) and labor onset– Fetal scalp electrodes – Forceps or vacuum extractor – Episiotomy

    Factors Influencing Perinatal Transmission

    ● Maternal Factors●High HIV-1 RNA levels (viral load [VL])●Low CD4+ lymphocyte count (“T-cells”) ●Co-infections: Hepatitis C, cytomegalovirus

    (CMV) bacterial vaginosis●Maternal injection drug use●No ARV therapy or prophylaxis

    Reproductive Health Care: Vertical Transmission Protocol

    • All pregnant HIV + women should be offered ART to maximally suppress viral replication, reduce the risk of perinatal transmission and minimize the development of resistant virus.

    • Start ART at least by 28 wks gestation.• Include AZT if possible.• Mother treated during pregnancy, IV AZT

    antepartum and infant 6 wks after delivery.• Educate/counsel breast milk transmission.

    Review: Goals of ARV Therapy

    ● Suppress HIV to below the limits of detection or as low as possible for as long as possible

    ● Prolong life and improve quality of life

    ● Preserve or restore immune function

    ● Reduce risk of perinatal transmission

    AIDSInfo website (http://www.aidsinfo.nih.gov)42

    PREVENTION OF MCT

    • Starting therapy at birth still reduces the risk of transmission of HIV, from 20%  to 13‐15%.

    • Therefore, women with no PNC, or no HIV testing on file, should be offered rapid HIV testing at presentation in active labor.

    CARE OF THE HIV‐EXPOSED INFANT

    • At birth, begin ZDV therapy, based on weight and gestational age: for full term infants: 2mg/kg/dose 4x/day or 4mg/kg 2x/day

    CARE OF THE HIV‐EXPOSED INFANT

    Testing for the diagnosis:• Use RNA qualitative assay

    » False positive rate  1‐2%» False negative rate 4% after 2 weeks of age

    – If mother is known to be HIV +, and infant at low risk:

    • PCR RNA at 2 weeks, 4wks and 4mon • A negative RNA ql assay at 2 wks and 4wks months indicates infant is presumptively HIV negative. A negative at 4months r/o HIV infection (as per CDC)

    • For high risk infants, additional tests at day 1 of life and at 8 weeks of age (along with tests at 2wks,4wks and 4months)

    • Follow HIV ab until infant becomes HIV ab negative, usually between 12 and 18 months of age.

    CARE OF THE HIV‐EXPOSED INFANT

    • At birth, begin ZDV therapy, based on weight and gestational age.

    • Continue ZDV for 6 weeks.• At 2 weeks, assess CBC, send HIV PCR QL• At 4 wks send CBC, CD4, HIV PCR• At 6 weeks,d/c ZDV and start TMP/SMZ if there is only one RNA test results available. If there are 2 neg(2 and 4wks), do NOT need to start TMP/SMZ

    CARE OF THE HIV‐EXPOSED INFANT

    Testing for the diagnosis:• Use RNA qualitative assay

    » False positive rate  1‐2%» False negative rate 4% after 2 weeks of age

    – If mother is known to be HIV +, and infant at low risk:• PCR RNA at 2 weeks, 4wks and 4mon • A negative RNA qualitative assay at 2 wks and 4wks months indicates infant is presumptively HIV negative. A negative at 4months r/o HIV infection (as per CDC)

    • For high risk infants, additional tests at day 1 of life and at 8 weeks of age (along with tests at 2wks,4wks and 4months)

    • Follow HIV ab until infant becomes HIV ab negative, usually between 12 and 18 months of age.

    Breastfeeding by HIV‐infected women is not recommended in the United 

    States.• Breastfeeding by HIV‐infected women (including those receiving ARV drugs) is not recommended in the United States where replacement feeding is affordable, feasible, acceptable, sustainable, and safe and the risk of infant mortality due to diarrheal and respiratory infections is low.

    • Importantly, although significantly lowering the risk of postnatal infection, neither infant nor maternal postpartum ARV prophylaxis completely eliminates the risk of HIV transmission through breast milk.

  • 10/27/2014

    22

    Mixed feeding (breast + formula) is most dangerous.

    • Mixed feeding is the most dangerous method– Formula feeding can irritate the lining of the baby's stomach

    – Irritation makes it easier for the HIV in breast milk to get in and cause an infection. 

    – In a South African study of HIV‐positive women and their babies, 36 percent of babies who received mixed feeding were reported infected compared to about 25 percent of those who were exclusively breast‐fed and 19.5 percent of formula‐fed babies.
