About Prevention of maternal-fetal transmission of HIV.

Prevention of maternal-fetal transmission of HIV refers to clinical interventions aimed at stopping vertical transmission of human immunodeficiency virus from an infected pregnant individual to the developing fetus or infant.

This clinical state involves the maternal immune and reproductive systems, placental barrier, and the vulnerable fetal or neonatal immune system.

Viral transfer can occur in utero across the placenta, intrapartum via direct exposure to infectious maternal blood and genital secretions during labor and delivery, or postnatally through breast milk.

The risk of transmission correlates strongly with maternal viral load, and preventative management centers on suppressing maternal viremia with antiretroviral therapy and providing post-exposure antiretroviral prophylaxis to the infant.
