Clinical Trial Description

The overall goal of this implementation research is to improve retention in care and adherence to ART to 2 years postpartum among HIV infected women in urban and rural Uganda choosing PMTCT Option B+. Formative research will first be conducted to assess knowledge and attitudes regarding Option B+ and lifelong ART among PMTCT clients, community members and health workers.
