[Pregnancies in HIV infected women in Switzerland].

Abstract:

:In a national multicentre study, 229 pregnancies in 219 HIV-positive women were prospectively followed up between January 1, 1990, and October 30, 1993. 69.8% were infected by intravenous drug abuse and 91.5% were asymptomatic (CDC classes II and III) in early pregnancy. 48 (21.0%) were first discovered to be HIV-infected during the index pregnancy: 46 of these had risk factors. The present epidemiologic development does not seem to warrant a general HIV-screening in pregnancy at this time. 71 pregnancies (31%) were terminated; 158 children were born, 17 (23.3%) of the 73 definitely classified are HIV-infected. An asymptomatic HIV infection with a sufficiently high (> 200/microliters) CD4 cell count has no proven influence on the pregnancy. Otherwise, however, maternal infectious diseases can lead to prematurity. For mothers with i.v. drug abuse, there is a significantly higher incidence of prematurity and fetal growth retardation. The maternal HIV infection can be transmitted to the child either during pregnancy or at delivery. The incidence of vertical transmission in our study was 23.3%; the most predictive parameter for a prenatal HIV transmission is a low anti-p24 antibody titre. The risk of intrapartum transmission seems to be somewhat, but not significantly, reduced for primary Caesarean sections. Recently, prophylaxis with Zidovudin during pregnancy, beginning after the 14th GW, was found to reduce vertical HIV-transmission by 66%. Since the virus can also be transmitted through mothers' milk, HIV-positive mothers should not nurse their babies. Maternal infections are significantly more frequent in HIV-positive women, and are a risk factor for prematurity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
