HIV PMTCT M&E Tools

Effective monitoring and evaluation (M&E) are critical to the success of programs aimed at preventing transmission of HIV from mothers to their infants. Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT) Monitoring and Evaluation tools support the systematic collection, analysis, and use of data to track service delivery across the continuum of care—from antenatal services and maternal HIV testing to antiretroviral treatment, safe delivery, and infant follow-up. These tools help health care workers and program managers monitor program performance, identify service gaps, and ensure that both mothers and infants receive timely and appropriate care. This eLearning course introduces the key PMTCT M&E tools and provides practical guidance on their proper use to strengthen data quality, support informed decision-making, and improve outcomes for mothers and their children.
