What the New Guidelines Represent
• Progress of knowledge in provision of HIV services
• The first step in codifying knowledge into standards of care
• Opportunity to improve approaches, service delivery, and outcomes
• A relatively rare “leverage point” to focus attention and effort

New Elements of the Guidelines
PMTCT:
• Emphasis on treating eligible pregnant women
– CD4 threshold 200 → 350
• Start ARV prophylaxis earlier
– 28 → 14 weeks
• Phase out sd-NVP
• Prophylaxis during the breast-feeding period

New Elements of the Guidelines
• Pediatrics: – Immediately start treatment for all HIV-positive
children less than 2 years old
• Adults:
– Simplified and more tolerable regimens
– CD4 threshold 200 → 350
• Infant and Young Child Feeding:
– Primacy of exclusive breast-feeding
– System-wide decision of optimal feeding practices

Overall Major Changes
If implemented at scale, the virtual elimination of pediatric HIV
• ↑ logistical and supply-chain needs
• ↑ need for long-term follow-up and integration between PMTCT and HIV care and treatment
• ↑ need for treatment
• Advancement of monitoring and evaluation
