Official title
Feasibility and Pilot Efficacy of Flash-heated Breast Milk for Reduction of Maternal-to-Child Transmission of HIV in Tanzania
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will investigate the feasibility of HIV positive mothers in Tanzania to correctly use the Flash-heat method to pasteurize their breast milk and for how long they are able to do so. The patients will be followed in this study for up to 3 months of Flash-heating their milk. Flash-heated breast milk could be a potential method to reduce mother-to-child transmission of HIV. The investigators will also collect infant health data to pilot a future efficacy trial. The investigators hypothesize that with enhanced home-based infant feeding counseling, mothers will be capable of Flash-heating their breast milk.
