Abstract

Sofoudis C

The incidence and existence of human immunodeficiency virus concerning women of reproductive age continues to increase globally. The care of HIV-infected women is not simple and must be focused on including the current and future health of these women, the minimization of the risk of maternal–infant transmission and the maintenance of the well-being of the fetus and neonate. Many maternal and obstetrical factors can affect the vertical transmission. The answer to this problem is the optimal medical and obstetrical care.
