Women with hepatitis B: how mothers with chronic hepatitis B understand and experience the prevention of mother-to-child transmission interventions in Victoria, Australia
CONCLUSIONS: This study explored how mothers with CHB understand and experience interventions to prevent MTCT.

Our findings can support development of evidence-based interventions and systems to improve healthcare for mothers with CHB and their infants, and thereby reduce possible CHB transmission and other negative outcomes, including stigma and discrimination.PMID:36155134 | DOI:10.1071/PY22014
