A trial of nurturing care among children who are HIV-exposed and uninfected in eSwatini

CONCLUSIONS: Nurturing care interventions can be integrated into ANC/PVT clinic-home-community programmes. The intervention, mediated through interactive caregiving activities, increased language development scores among CHEU. Partnering with a local team, m2m, to design and implement a culturally relevant intervention illustrates the ability to impact parent-child play and learning activities that are associated with children's neurodevelopment.PMID:37909213 | PMC:PMC10618895 | DOI:10.1002/jia2.26158
