About this study

HIV virus is an etiologic agent of ( AIDS ) immunodeficiency syndrome . It is known that the estimated rate of transfer from mother to baby is 25% to 45%, pregnancy rate is 5-10%, pregnancy rate is 15-20% and in lactation period is 5-10%. Risk factors; maternal viral load, breastfeeding, vaginal birth, and prematurity. Although there is a high rate of false positivity in prenatal screening in our country, one of the factors affecting this is the number of pregnancies.

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The effect of the number of pregnancies on Anti HIV false positivity rate (time frame: 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
