This provider sheet provides information about important perinatal HIV prevention and treatment information from federal/public health agencies and professional associations for the clinicians and their patients. Every infant infected with HIV through vertical transmission represents a sentinel health event that signals either a missed prevention opportunity, or, more rarely, a failure of prophylaxis. Explain to your patient that you are not singling her out. Assure her that HIV testing is an important part of routine prenatal care in your practice. CDC-INFO 999822 ottl_factsheet.pdf
