    Abstract:
    Pediatric AIDS and HIV infection are issues that have and will continue to receive more and more attention. With the increasing number of children born to HIV-infected women, there are many unanswered questions concerning maternal and child health organizations. This article provides information on the current epidemiology, etiology, and pathophysiology of the HIV infection, methods of diagnosis, and the multisystem clinical manifestations of HIV infection in the infant and child. Prognosis and course of the illness, as well as current research on management, psychosocial, and nursing implications, prevention, and future trends are discussed.
