“…However, no patient in the study had third or fourth perineal tears. Moreover, both episiotomies and perineal tears have been found to be risk factors for MTCT of HIV [2][3][4]10 . Though the episiotomy rate was significantly higher in primigravidae, those who were HIV negative amongst the multigravidae significantly had more episiotomies and perineal tears in contrast with HIV positive parturients.…”

Además, en las pacientes con terapia antirretroviral se ha observado un aumento del riesgo de parto pretérmino, trastornos hipertensivos y diabetes gestacional, aunque no se conoce exactamente la fisiopatología de estos hallazgos (5,6).…”
