demographic profile, pregnancy outcome and fetal complications of HIV infection were
described using frequency, percentages, mean, standard deviation using Microsoft
Excel software.
Results: The seroprevalence of HIV among pregnant females was 0.33%. Low birth
weight was seen in 25% newborns, 20.8% newborns were preterm. In present study, 1
(4.2%) new born each had NICU admission, congenital anomaly, IUD and 1 was still
