- W2111816605 abstract "Introduction: The Pediatric Unit of the Borgou Regional Hospital (CHD-Borgou) in Parakou has initiated treating HIV-infected children with Anti-Retroviral (ARV) drugs since 2005. This study aimed to describe the profile and the future of the HIV-infected children who were provided medical care at the Pediatric Unit of the CHD-Borgou from 2005 to 2009. Patients and methods: It is a retrospective study with descriptive and analytical objective, carried out from January 2005 to December 2009 on 105 HIV-infected children from both sexes cared in that Unit. Results: HIV infection represented 0.43% of the children brought for medical examination during the study period. Among these children, 82.9% were at clinical stages 3 or 4 on inclusion into patient panel and 76.2% had severe immunodeficiciency. The proportion of children on Anti-Retroviral Therapy (ART) was 69.1%. The main opportunistic infections found were digestive (30.3%), pulmonary (28.5%), dermatological (24.1%) and ENT (10.5%) ones. The problems identified included lack of early diagnostic tools, frequent shortage of antiretroviral drugs, treatment or therapeutic failures, causes related to poor compliance and follow up. The lost of follow up rate was 39%. Death rate was 33.3%. Death was significantly associated with the advanced clinical stage of disease on admission (p=0.002), with age at the time of screening (p=0.017) and with follow up duration (p=0.000). Conclusion: Despite the difficulties noted, this study showed that, in limited resources settings like ours, it is possible to improve the clinical outcome of HIV infected children. The high mortality rate noted related to the delayed HIV diagnosis can be reduced by strengthening the Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission (PMTCT) program." @default.
