ABSTRACT

Pediatric HIV-1 infection occurs predominantly as perinatal motherto-child transmission. In this paper we will discuss the different routes of perinatal infection as well as the infection timing and the current strategies to diminish the risk of mother-to-child perinatal HIV-1 infection. We will take a deeper look into the current anti-retroviral prophylactic therapy administered to pregnant HIV-1 infected women, as well as its economical impact on the population of the Latin America and the Caribbean Region. We will go over the impact of the route of birth, being natural birth or cesarean-section, as well as on the role played by maternal breast feeding and its association with mother-to-child perinatal transmission of HIV-1. Finally we will discuss the main epidemiological strategies issued in order to prevent and/or reduce the mother-to-child transmission of HIV-1, by some of the Agencies of the United Nations forming the Joint Programme for HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) and the Mexican Health Secretariat.
