During natural childbirth, many institutions will conduct HIV antibody screening.
Generally, during prenatal visits, routine screenings for infectious diseases such as HIV antibodies, hepatitis B surface antigen and antibody, hepatitis C antibodies, and syphilis are conducted. If any infectious diseases are detected, appropriate measures must be taken to prevent transmission and manage the conditions accordingly.
During natural childbirth, many institutions also carry out HIV antibody screening. If the screening results are positive, it is crucial to promptly prevent transmission to the newborn, which requires the joint management by experienced infectious disease specialists and obstetricians.
