The purpose of this webinar is to enable participants to increase their knowledge of best practices for caring for infants that have potentially been exposed to HIV in utero, peripartum, or post-partum.
Upon completion, participants will be able to:
- Assess the overall risk of perinatal HIV transmission, and the timing of HIV transmission, either in utero, peripartum, or post-partum via breastfeeding
- Describe the testing recommended to diagnose HIV exposure and HIV infection in infants
- Discuss appropriate treatment approaches in various categories of perinatal transmission risk
