FHI's Zambia Prevention, Care and Treatment Partnership (ZPCT) embarked on a groundbreaking effort to test CD4 counts and provide complex antiretroviral regimens for pregnant women seeking prevention of mother-to-child transmission services (PMTCT) at their community health centers. In this PMTCT project, ZPCT's major innovations at the primary health center level have included procurement of CD4 count machines and creation of a blood sample referral system. ZPCT has supplied motorbikes and fuel allowances to transport specimens from PMTCT centers for testing. ZPCT has also trained health care workers, laboratory staff, and pharmacists in such areas as counseling and testing and commodity management.
