OBJECTIVE: to evaluate the implementation of the National Control Program of HIV Vertical Transmission in brazilian maternities. METHODOLOGY: data from medical records, interview with pregnant women and pre-birth care observation were compared to a retrospective cohort of positively diagnosed pregnant women from the same maternity clinics. RESULTS: sixty-seven percent out of 30 clinics had rapid HIV test kits and IV and syrup AZT. In 324 cohort pregnant women previously diagnosed for HIV, 18% had not taken AZT and 7% have not had their children medicated. CONCLUSION: unavailability of human resources, rapid HIV test kits, inappropriate conditionsfor testing and lack of HIV counseling and testing for pregnant women were major negative findings.
