","Nutritional care and support for people living with HIV/AIDS was reported to the Global Nutrition Policy Review (GNPR) 2009-2010Study preparation and data collectionDue to the post-election violence that occurred in Kenya in January and February 2008, initiation of this study was postponed from its original start date of January 2008 to May 2008 to ensure the safety of the field team. The study team for Western Province included one field supervisor and four research assistants who were fluent in the local Luhya and Swahili languages. The study team for Eastern Province included one field supervisor and four research assistants who were fluent in Kamba, Swahili, and Kikuyu. A data analyst was also hired to enter and clean data in real time, as well as to assist with data analysis. Study procedural training was held with the entire study team, led by Dr. Kiersten Israel-Ballard and Ms. Margaret Waithaka, May 19–23, 2008. This included pretesting the data collection tools, revising all translations as needed, and piloting them in multiple languages at a local clinic. The study launch was on May 26 for Eastern Province, with field support from Dr. Israel-Ballard, and June 2 for Western Province, with field support from Ms. Waithaka. The data collection tools utilized in this study are available upon request.Study populations and proceduresThis cross-sectional study was designed to collect formative research data in a descriptive manner. This study took place at APHIA II (AIDS, Population and Health Integrated Assistance [USAID-funded program]) affiliated sites in the Kakamega, Vihiga, Hamisi, and Bungoma Districts of Western Province and in the Kitui, Makueni, Kibwezi, Machakos, Mwala, Yatta, Mwingi, and Mbooni Districts of Eastern Province. These regions were selected to include food-secure areas of Western Province and food-insecure areas of Eastern Province. Data collection occurred between May and September 2008. According to the 2007 Kenya AIDS Indicator Survey, Eastern Province had an HIV prevalence of 4.7 and Western Province of 5.1.This study was composed of a convenience sample of quantitative in-depth interviews, brief post-counseling exit interviews, and counseling session observations. A total of 386 women older than 18 years of age were recruited. In-depth interviews were conducted with 285 women (137 in Eastern Province, 148 in Western Province). Women known to be HIV positive were recruited from PMTCT clinics, comprehensive care centers, and postnatal wards at local clinics and referral hospitals, as well as from support groups affiliated with the health centers. Inclusion criteria included being HIV infected, having an infant <18 months of age, and having stopped breastfeeding between 1 week to 6 months prior to participation. Survey questions focused on the period over which breastfeeding cessation took place, including the age of the infant, liquids and foods fed during this period and their associated costs and availability, infant illness, breast health, general challenges, as well as a 24-hour dietary recall to capture current infant feeding practices and challenges. Infant weight and mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) were measured to capture current nutritional status.Post-counseling exit interviews were conducted with 80 women (50 in Eastern Province, 30 in Western Province) who had not participated in the cross-sectional survey. The difference in sample size between provinces was due to clinic staffing shortages, resulting in the lack Kenya Infant Feeding Assessment 5 of individual postnatal counseling in Western Province; group PMTCT counseling was more commonly practised Women known to be HIV positive were recruited upon leaving an antenatal or postnatal PMTCT counseling session at a health facility. Inclusion criteria included being HIV positive, being pregnant, or having an infant <12 months of age. Counseling session observations occurred 22 times with different women and in various clinics (9 in Eastern Province, 13 in Western Province). Inclusion criteria included being HIV positive, being pregnant, or having an infant <12 months of age. In Eastern Province, four of these observations were antenatal and five were postnatal; in Western Province nine were antenatal and four were postnatal. Antenatal mothers were recruited in the antenatal care (ANC) clinic in the PMTCT section. Postnatal mothers were recruited in the comprehensive care center or in the maternal and child health (MCH) ward. Three observations were of ANC group counseling sessions rather than individual sessions; two in Western, one in Eastern. The observer used a check list to indicate whether a specified topic had been covered during the session. Although recruitment criteria were inclusive of both antenatal and postnatal mothers with infants under 12 months of age, most (n = 8) of the mothers interviewed postnatally had infants of only 1 month of age, while one mother had a 3-month-old and another had a 9-month-old infant, thus limiting the infant age ranges. All clients who met the recruitment criteria and consented to join the study during the recruitment period were recruited. To ensure eligibility and guardianship of the infant we required identification documents prior to enrollment. Additionally, 11 local stakeholders, including district and provincial nutritionists and nursing officers from Nairobi and Eastern and Western Provinces, were informally interviewed to gather their perceptions and attitudes toward infant feeding in the context of HIV in their communities.

","To monitor the progress of infant feeding and HIV activities, IYCN provided reporting tools which included a form to help APHIA II Western-supported PMTCT counselors accurately report on their facility-based activities in a standardized way, and to provide an opportunity to share successes and challenges; an observation checklist to provide structured feedback to facility-based counselors to improve their counseling and facilitation skills; and a reporting form for community-based workers to report on infant feeding activities. Subsequently, several PMTCT and HIV partners adopted the tools for use in their programs.

Yet, this is a crucial factor for decision-making in this study population given that the most common water sources cited among mothers interviewed were rivers, dams, or open ponds. We also noted that the costs of replacement feeding were rarely mentioned. Interestingly, we observed more emphasis placed on risks from replacement feeding than on those from breastfeeding during ANC, but the opposite emphasis during postnatal visits, perhaps due to the perceived fear of infecting an otherwise healthy-looking infant. Regardless of when the counseling takes place, an accurate representation of risks and benefits associated with all infant feeding options needs to be conveyed to mothers. It was reassuring to note that most counseling sessions included discussion around how to stop breastfeeding, including mentioning that cessation should not occur until 6 months and that AFASS criteria should be in place, and providing an explanation of how a mother should physically stop breastfeeding (i.e., reduce number of breastfeeds per day) and how long the transition should take. However, as with the exit interviews, few mentioned manual expression to prevent breast pathologies. Although complementary foods were often discussed, mothers needed more detailed information on Kenya Infant Feeding Assessment 28 timing, frequency, quantity, diversity, and appropriate local foods to be able to optimally feed their infants. Although infants were often weighed, their growth progress was rarely discussed with the mother. Effective growth monitoring should also include growth promotion, which includes dialogue with the mother in order to identify and address problem areas before they lead to growth faltering or malnutrition.

For pre-antiretroviral treatment and antiretroviral treatment patients, clinical malnutrition is a risk factor for HIV and mortality. Malnutrition can also negatively impact birth outcomes among HIV-positive women. As HIV infection progresses, challenges to maintenance of adequate nutritional status—mal-absorption of nutrients, hyper-metabolism, etc.—increase and can adversely affect adherence to and effectiveness of drug treatments.
Food by Prescription provides food and nutritional support to malnourished HIV+ individuals in the form of therapeutic and supplementary feeding at health facility levels. The project serves severely malnourished people living with HIV/AIDS, HIV+ pregnant women, HIV+ women in their first six months post-partum, their infants, and orphans and vulnerable children. To ensure the program’s success, USAID works with the Ethiopian Ministry of Health and HIV/AIDS Prevention and Control Office, as well as the Food and Nutrition Technical Assistance (FANTA) project. Food by Prescription serves as a critical component of PEPFAR, a broader effort to strengthen integration of nutrition into HIV services. In order to reduce the cost associated with importation of nutrients and food commodities, the project will also collaborate with the public and private sector to explore the possibility of local production for some of the required food commodities.
Expected Results:
Two qualitative data collection rounds were included, with the following objectives:
a) Adherence and compliance: The objective of the first was to elaborate and contextualize the findings of the quantitative impact study, by exploring ration utilization and participant perceptions of the costs and benefits of participation in the FBP program. It sought to validate the assumption that participants were receiving and consuming the rations prescribed as per the program protocol and to identify the constraining factors and solutions for improved participant adherence. This component of the study also addressed issues of service provider participation, and the barriers and constraints to delivery that may have impacted the effects of the program on individuals.
b) Default and non-response: While the first qualitative study sought to identify constraints to adherence from a group of “successful” participants, a second study was designed to investigate the experience of “unsuccessful” participants, aiming to identify possible limitations to adherence among individuals who either defaulted from the program or failed to respond to the intervention.
The objective of the second qualitative study was to understand in greater depth the range of reasons for default among FBP program participants, as well as the range of reasons for poor weight gain among other participants.
The study was designed as a quasi-experimental effectiveness evaluation, with a comparison group of clinics selected from a geographic area similar to those in which the intervention was being evaluated. Originally, the study was designed to reflect the existence of a food support program being implemented by WFP in limited urban areas for households containing individuals with HIV. As the WFP program was providing a household ration to participant households, there was a concern that the measured impact of the FBP program could be biased by the presence or absence of the WFP program.
Therefore, the study sample was stratified to include three cohorts of participants who were followed longitudinally: two groups of adult PLHIV meeting FBP enrollment criteria in ART clinics at selected health facilities, one from sites offering both the FBP program and the WFP program, and another from sites offering FBP only. Participants from these two groups were recruited for the study at the time when they enrolled in the FBP program. The third group, a comparison group, was composed of FBP-eligible adults recruited from FBP Phase II sites, i.e., where the program had not yet been rolled out but would do so during Year Two of the program.
However, after the FBP program and the impact study had commenced, the WFP program was phased out. Despite this, the three study groups were maintained, with the idea that the two treatment groups could be pooled eventually if the baseline characteristics of the two did not differ significantly.
