    HIV and Pediatric Treatment and Care in Saskatchewan

    Report, 2012


    This report focuses on the needs of children who have contracted HIV from mother-to-child-transmission (MTCT).

This literature review seeks to address the need for this information by providing an overview of the diagnosis, treatment, care, and support needs of infants through early childhood (birth to age 6). The audience for this report includes health professionals, caregivers, and other adults who may come into contact with children infected with HIV.
