Malaria And HIV Infections In Pregnancy: Maternal, Perinatal And Infant Health Issues

ABSTRACT

In sub-Saharan Africa, several hundreds of pregnancies are exposed to both malaria and HIV infections annually. Consequences of these infections include maternal anemia, immunosuppression, preterm delivery, low birth weight, low Apgar score, and cord malaria. Unfortunately, these infections in relation to these adverse outcomes are not well characterized in Ghana. This study determined whether maternal malaria and HIV infections during pregnancy are associated with increased risk of these outcomes.
