Effects of Antiretrovirals for HIV on African health systems, Maternal and Child health (ARVMAC)Period: 01/11/2006 to 31/10/2010Budget from EC: EUR 2 400 000website: http://www.arvmac.euCoordinator: Dr Anna Mia EkströmKarolinska InstitutetIncreasing access to antiretroviral treatment (ART) inresource-poor settings is an obvious emergency measure,but the scaling up of ART poses serious challenges to theoverall functioning of the health system. The system’sanswer to these challenges may jeopardise or strengthenits response to other health priorities and will affect thefeasibility of MDG 4 and 5 in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). HIVis inherently linked to child survival, gender inequities andreproductive health. It increases infant and child mortalityby up to 40 %. Women are 4 to 25 times more vulnerable toHIV transmission — on average, they are 10 years youngerthan men when infected — and make up the majority ofpeople living with HIV in SSA.Donor investment in vertical ART programmes enables thecurrent health budget to be doubled in some SSA countries;accordingly, access is no longer constrained by drug costs.Low absorption capacity and lack of infrastructure andhuman resources are the major challenges to implementingthe WHO ‘3 by 5’. Using Tanzania as an example, aredistribution of 35 % to 70 % of the health system’sworkforce is required, in order to increase the number ofthose on ART, from 8 000 to 220 000 in 2005. The lack ofintegration of ART with antenatal care limits the preventionof mother-to-child transmission.Pooling of staff to ART undermines the quality of basic care(ANC, IMCI) and reduces access to second-level care (e.g.Caesarean sections), thus running the risk of increasing childand maternal mortality. Solutions need to be sought on howto: absorb ART funds; prioritise the different types of care;and correctly distribute, monitor and sustain ART in fragilehealth systems with weak resource allocation capacity,without harming the most vulnerable. The project <strong>part</strong>nerswill study health policy, the consequences of ART scale-up inpopulation-based settings on health services, maternal andchild health with existing infrastructures for registrationof vital events and diseases, as well as three demographicsurveillance sites in three different SSA countries, usingboth quantitative and qualitative research methods.Health and public health
