Preferences for and Experiences of Antenatal and Postpartum Male Partner Support Among Kenyan Women Living with HIV
Open AccessBrooke Lapke, Katherine Atcheson et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2026
Male partner involvement in prevention of mother to child transmission of HIV (PMTCT) services is linked to improved outcomes for women living with HIV. Yet, rates of male partner support are low.

Progress Toward Eliminating Mother to Child Transmission of HIV in Kenya
Open AccessRuby Angeline Pricilla, Melinda Brown et al.ARTICLEMaternal and Child Health Journal2018
Background Prevention of mother to child transmission of HIV (PMTCT) services are critical to achieve national and global targets of 90% antiretroviral therapy (ART) coverage in PMTCT, and mother to child transmission rates less than 5%. In 2012, Kenya adopted WHO's recommended ART regimen for PMTCT "Option B+". Aims This study assesses progress made in adopting these new guidelines and associated outcomes. Methods We analysed programmatic data o…

Despite the importance of early detection to signal lifesaving treatment initiation for HIV+ infants, early infant diagnosis (EID) services have received considerably less attention than other aspects of prevention of mother to child transmission care. This study draws on baseline data from an on-going cluster randomized study of an intervention to improve EID services at six government hospitals across Kenya. Two logistic regressions examined po…
