First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a streamlined HIV care approach for pregnant and postpartum women and their infants at a hospital in Kenya. The goal was to see if offering simpler, more flexible services could reduce clinic wait times and keep mothers and babies healthy. Researchers tracked viral suppression, child survival, and how well the new model was accepted by patients and healthcare workers.
