Moms helping moms: can peers close the gap in postpartum HIV care?

NCT ID NCT04168008

Summary

This study tested whether a peer support program could help women living with HIV stay connected to their medical care after having a baby. The program involved educational meetings with another woman who has HIV, both before and after delivery, along with check-ins by phone or text. Researchers wanted to see if this support helped women keep their doctor's appointments and maintain an undetectable viral load in the year after childbirth.
