Released/updated on: 2015-06-09
Geographic coverage: Africa, South Africa
This project collects data to examine the efficacy of an integrated model of HIV post-test support for women attending the King Edward VIII Hospital (KEH) Antenatal Care (ANC) Clinic in Durban, South Africa. This project first interviews a cohort of 1,495 HIV-positive and HIV-negative participants to determine baseline biological characteristics (gonorrhea, trichomonas vaginalis, chlamydia), as well as behavioral and psychosocial characteristics. After the interview, the project follows participants into 9 months post-partum to compare sexual risk factors associated with HIV transmission from mother to child.
