Prevention of HIV vertical transmission programmes (VTPs) in South Africa has decreased paediatric HIV; however, these programmes require integration in referral hospitals. This study aims to determine the knowledge of and attitudes toward the national VTP guidelines among staff from Obstetric and Paediatric disciplines at two referral hospitals.

We applaud the American Academy of Pediatrics for their recent guideline update, which now recommends that birthing parents with HIV breastfeed/chestfeed under safe conditions. This policy shift benefits not only nurtures infant health, but supports the emotional and psychological well-being of the parent. Embracing breastfeeding/chestfeeding under these new conditions empowers birthing individuals, offering more autonomy in their parenting choices and fostering the bond between parent and child, which is crucial for emotional resilience and stability during the perinatal journey. #perinatalmentalhealth #maternalmentalhealth #breastfeedingchestfeeding #parentalautonomy #SharedDecisionMaking #Touchstoneinstitute

PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) is important for women during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to the following benefits: 1. The woman can protect herself from contracting HIV or passing it to their unborn/breastfeeding child 2. PrEP can be used when one person in the relationship is HIV positive and the couple wants to conceive safely without passing HIV to their child 3. PrEP is one pill a day and can be taken privately (container swap). Since the start of the DREAMS programme in 2020, we have been advocating for the initiation of PrEP to pregnant and breastfeeding young women and were met with resistance due to the limited guidance on the matter. Now that the PrEP guidelines released in 2021(2) contain job aids for counselling pregnant and breastfeeding women, key messaging on the risks as well as the PrEP pregnancy outcome reporting form, our clinicians have been empowered to confidently screen, offer and initiate our PBFW on PrEP. PrEP is also now included in the newly released VTP guidelines and continues to be promoted as a reliable HIV prevention strategy, safe and freely available for all. #PrEP #PrEPGuidelines2021 #VTP

Paediatric viral load monitoring is key to HIV programming, our intervention takes Viral load services to the recipient of care if they can't come for them due to structural reasons. Using dried blood spots, I am able to overcome the challenge of sample integrity compromise or haemolysis due to inadequate cold chain transport mechanism in far remote areas. #pediatrics #viralload #ECEWS
