  abstract = {{W}ould {HIV}-1-positive {A}frican women use interventions of {AIDS} testing, medication (oral and vaginal), and vaginal disinfection to reduce the likelihood of {HIV}-1 transmission to their child ? {I}n this pilot study in two west {A}frican cities ({A}bidjan, {C}{\^o}te d'{I}voire, and {B}obo-{D}ioulasso, {B}urkina {F}aso), social workers gave a native-language questionnaire to 607 pregnant women at four {M}aternal and {C}hild {H}ealth {C}enters. {T}he women were asked about their perception of the {HIV} test ; consequences of testing and counseling ; choice of medical intervention to protect the future child ; and feelings about being in a randomized, placebo-controlled, clinical trial. {M}ost accepted the principle of an {AIDS} test, said they wanted the agreement of their regular partner before being tested, and would use interventions to reduce the risk of vertical transmission. {T}he researchers concluded that although concepts of informed consent, randomization, and placebo are difficult to understand, the study results are promising and encourage the evaluation of clinical trials to reduce mother-to-child transmission.
