Brief Summary:
Despite high levels of adherence motivation during pregnancy, HIV treatment adherence and engagement in care is difficult for women in the postpartum period. Supporting women during the transition from pregnancy to postpartum is imperative to sustaining HIV treatment adherence during this period. The investigators are conducting a small scale pilot study of a behavioral Transition Theory-based intervention to support ART adherence and engagement in ART services among pregnant and postpartum women living with HIV.
Detailed Description:
Prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) efforts have reduced the rates of vertical transmission to 2.7%, however, optimal antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence remains a difficult goal to reach, particularly postpartum. Longitudinal qualitative research reveals a variety of facilitators and barriers to the transition from pregnancy to postpartum including employment/financial concerns, logistical concerns around childcare and breastfeeding, worries about vertical transmission and difficulties bonding. This intervention draws on the growing cadre of community health workers within the South African health care system and Transition Theory to develop a behavioral intervention to support women living with HIV through the transition from pregnancy to postpartum. The investigators are conducting a small scale pilot study to compare the impact of a Transition Theory-based intervention to enhanced standard of care on self-reported ART adherence and engagement in ART services among pregnant and postpartum women living with HIV.
