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). Care and treatment needs are likely to be similar between individuals infected through MTCT and behaviourally infected individuals; however, behaviours, adherence rates, and outcomes may be different due to lifestyle, upbringing, and age of infection. 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.
