Social networks and their role in early initiation of antenatal care by HIV serostatus in Uganda
REFNo: HS4061ES
Through a quantitative survey data collection using a prospective cohort design, this study aims to:
1) Understand whether there exists an association between social network characteristics and early ANC initiation;
2) Explore whether visualizing social network characteristics differentially affects care-seeking intentions at delivery;
3) Characterize the social network characteristics of pregnant women seeking ANC and assess whether differences exist by serostatus;
4) Assess whether network characteristics are differentially associated with early ANC initiation depending on serostatus, with similar analyses for other perinatal care indicators (e.g., facility-based delivery, post-partum care and infant HIV testing if applicable)
