    The document outlines a planned logic model for a PMTCT program in Country X aimed at preventing mother-to-child transmission of HIV. The program will provide antenatal care services including counseling, testing, and referral. It will also distribute antiretroviral prophylaxis and provide infant feeding counseling and support. The objectives of the program are to increase access to and knowledge of HIV testing and treatment as well as increase their proper use, with the ultimate goals of decreasing HIV incidence among infants and morbidity/mortality among people living with HIV/AIDS.

    Developing SMART Objectives Case Study

    Introduction: Country X Ministry of Health is developing a program to


    prevent maternal to child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV. The planned logic
    model for the program is outlined below. They also are planning an
    evaluation of the program. You are thinking about program objectives that
    will capture the implementation process and the program outcomes.

    Planned Logic Model


    Problem 1HIV rates have been rising among pregnant women and infant children in
    Statement Country X. The risk of HIV transmission from mother to child is significant
    during pregnancy and delivery (although particularly around the time of
    delivery), and there is an additional risk of postpartum transmission via breast-
    feeding.
    Inputs • Staff
    • Funding from GAP, government, and other donors
    • PMTCT counseling & testing protocol
    • HIV test kits
    • Anti-retroviral (ARV) drugs
    • Breast milk substitutes
    Activities • Provide ANC services, 1including counseling, testing, and referral
    • Distribute ARV prophylaxis
    • Provide infant-feeding counseling and support
    Outputs • 500 women will participate in one two-hour antenatal care session per
    quarter
    • Half of these women (250) will receive HIV test results per quarter
    • All of these women (500) who test positive for HIV will be referred for ARV
    prophylaxis and infant-feeding counseling and support per quarter
    • Half of these women (250) will receive ARV drugs and infant feeding
    counseling and breast milk substitutes

    Outcomes • Access to HIV testing will increase


    • Knowledge of HIV status will increase
    • Knowledge about HIV prophylaxis will increase
    • Access to ARV prophylaxis will increase
    • Use of ARV prophylaxis by pregnant HIV+ women and their infants will
    increase
    • Rapid infant weaning and use of breast milk supplements will increase

    Impacts • HIV incidence among infants will decrease


    • Morbidity and mortality among people living with HIV/AIDS will decrease
