Resumen
Abstract Human immunodeficiency virus vertical transmission in developed countries has dramatically decreased to less than 2% over the last 15 years due to the consecutive implementation of different prophylactic measures, including the use of antiretrovirals, elective cesarean section and refraining from breastfeeding. The follow-up of these otherwise healthy children is, by far, the most common situation related to HIV infection that general pediatricians currently face in routine clinical care in Spain. These Recommendations issued by the Spanish Society of Pediatric Infectious Diseases attempt to summarize the main aspects of this follow-up, including birth management, type of feeding, neonatal antiretroviral prophylaxis, HIV infection diagnosis, common early comorbidities, short- and mid-term toxicities, vaccination and other prophylactic measures and long-term follow-up.
