Estimates• 27 million pregnancies a year
• estimated 0.7% prevalence of HIV among pregnant women
• estimated 189,000 HIV infected womendeliver every year in India
• Every year 56700 babies at risk of deathwith in 1-5 yrs
• Presently, only 6% (3402) of exposed infants followed up at 8 wks of life
Current PPTCT Regimen
• SD NVP to the mother and the new born infant .
• SD NVP is fairly effective ,cheap, less toxic and programmatically easy to implement
• Currently 45-50 % of HIV+ ve mothers-infant pair get prophylactic SD NVP at PPTCT centers
Gaps in PPTCT Program • Only 3.94%of 27 m Women avail PPTCT• Inadequet expansion beyond large Units • Emergency counseling and testing.• Policy for Private sector Participation• PPTCT services availability coverage in
other States is low • NVP resistance challenge • Poor Infant follow up &CTX prophylaxis

Relative proportion of different combinations as per 2006 guidelines
STV based Combination: - 40%
ZDV based Combination: - 60%
EFV -20% (for those with NVP Toxicity
and TB Co-infection A triple drug combination of ZDV+LMV+NVP has been included
Tenofovir has been included in guidelines for patients with sideeffects to both Stavudine & Zidovudine.
ZDV –Ped FDC in pipeline
ABC in consideration for children
New Recommendations
• DNA PCR at 6 wks by DBS.
• AZT based FDC vs. d4T based
• ABC as Second line
• Regional Centers of Excellence for Children
Gaps and Challenges
• Institutional Deliveries • Follow up of the Mother Baby Pair • CTX Prophylaxis • Early Diagnosis at 6 wks • Only 1900 children on ART • Comprehensive Family Care Package • Second Line ARV
Challenges to Scale- up • Mapping of Children
• RCH-Comprehensive HIV Care Package -IMNCI-HIV Care
» Districts 370» FRU’s 1882» CHC’s 1625» PHC’s 9688» Sub Centers 18365
• Public Private Partnership
• Desegregate data collection and using it.
Capacity Building
• Bottom Up Planning
• HCW-ANM’s,CBO’s,TBA’s,Link workers
• Volunteers &PLHA’s for community support
• Tools for Counseling &Disclosures
Linkages betweenPPTCT&ARTCenters
• Assessment of the Status of the mother –CD4 Testing
• HAART for the Mother – from ART Center • ART Availability at sub-district level. • New PPTCT Regimens-feasibility and
operational plan
Infant Feeding – Counseling and Support
• 45% approx opt for FF- usually other milk.
• 55% of those recd NVP opted for breast feeding
• However, there have been studies that indicate that the EBF in not exactly” exclusive” and mixed feeding is the norm. The percentage of mothers really exclusively breast feeding is reported to be just about 2-5%
NACO-2004
Follow –UP of the exposed Children
• monitoring of the new PPTCT –Infant Component -1/4 wks
• 6 wks visit –for CTX &PCR testing / Cultural Norms
• Operationalization of DBS for PCR testing • Nutritional Support.
M& E Indicators
• Desegregate Data Collection• Counselor –already burdened with work • No training incorporated in existing
curriculum to collect data for children • ICTC-PPTCT ……Manually • Insufficient feed back from NACO for
program improvement
Pharmaceutical Challenges
• Pediatric Formulations –WHOpre -qualifications
• AZT based Pediatric FDC • Second line Drugs –ABC/Boosted PI’s • Supply chain Management –Donor driven• National Policy on Irrational use of ART • Drug Resistance Surveillance
Role of IAP• Programming and Planning .• Technical Support to GOI-NACO• Delivery of all National Health Programs• Monitoring Health Programs • IEC and social mobilization • Community support in Disasters• Implementation of PPP• Advocacy to its members and Capacity building • Training of health care workers
Next Steps
• Pediatric Initiative on World AIDS Day’ 06 • Pilot New PPTCT Regimens • Pilot Pediatric M&E Indicators • IAP-NACO-Pharma – AZT Ped FDC,ABC • Scale up Comprehensive Pediatric care to
Sub –District Level .• Guidelines for Pediatric Counseling,
Disclosures ,Consent &Confidentiality for the young
