Delivery of the women-centred HIV care model in Canadian HIV clinics
The Women-Centred HIV Care (WCHC) Model addresses women living with HIV's multifaceted healthcare needs, but its delivery remains unclear. This environmental scan examines the delivery of the WCHC Model in Canadian HIV clinics. Clinics were surveyed on health service delivery, then scored out of 10 in the six domains of the WCHC Model using a service-based score system. Generally, on-site services were assigned more value than off-site referrals.…
Comparing fertility clinic care for individuals and couples living with and affected by HIV and in Canada from 2014 to 2023
Access to fertility care, particularly medically assisted conception (MAC), is a reproductive justice concern for individuals with HIV. This longitudinal study investigates MAC access for people with HIV in Canada. Surveys were distributed to medical and laboratory directors from 58 fertility clinics across nine provinces. Responses were initiated by 24/89 (27.0%) participants, representing 19/58 (32.8%) clinics in 7 provinces. Complete responses…
An exploration of the fertility desires and intentions of men living with HIV in Ontario, Canada
Planning families is an important issue within the HIV community. The primary objective of this study was to explore the fertility desires and intentions of men living with HIV (MLWH). A cross-sectional survey containing 77 questions in 10 domains was developed, validated and administered to MLWH. The sample was stratified by sexual orientation, ethnicity, and city of residence. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine sociodemogr…
Access and engagement in HIV care among a national cohort of women living with HIV in Canada
Attrition along the cascade of HIV care poses significant barriers to attaining the UNAIDS targets of 90-90-90 and achieving optimal treatment outcomes for people living with HIV. Understanding the correlates of attrition is critical and particularly for women living with HIV (WLWH) as gender disparities along the cascade have been found. We measured the proportion of the 1425 WLWH enrolled in the Canadian HIV Women's Sexual and Reproductive Heal…
HIV and infant feeding in resource-rich settings
With advances in the care of HIV-positive pregnant women, the likelihood of perinatal transmission is now less than 1%. In resource-rich settings women are instructed to abstain from breastfeeding, as studies have shown that breastfeeding increases the likelihood of infant acquisition of HIV. As practitioners caring for HIV-positive parents, we are now facing growing tension about the complex issues that inform decisions about infant feeding. In …
Assessing access for prospective adoptive parents living with HIV
Work has been underway to increase the availability of parenting options for people living with and affected by HIV. One option, adoption, has not yet been explored in the literature. The study aimed to gain a better understanding of the potential of adoption for individuals/couples living with HIV in Ontario, and to assess potential structural barriers or facilitators that may impact their experience navigating the adoption system by conducting …
The importance of motherhood in HIV-positive women of reproductive age in Ontario, Canada
Motherhood is personally, culturally, and historically rooted. Recent publications have focused on medical issues related to pregnancy and HIV, with attention on fetal well-being. There is limited literature on the importance of motherhood for HIV-positive women. Our study's purpose was to investigate the importance of motherhood among HIV-positive women of reproductive age in Ontario, Canada and to analyze the correlates thereof. We present our …
