| dc.description.abstract | Aims and Objectives:
The overall aim of this evaluation was to conduct a national facility-based survey to monitor the
effectiveness of the South African National PMTCT programme. The primary objective was to
measure rates of early MTCT of HIV at six weeks postpartum. The secondary objective was to
periodically estimate coverage of key PMTCT interventions and services (e.g., HIV testing, CD4 cell
count testing, infant antiretroviral (ARV) prophylaxis, infant feeding counselling). | en_US |
