description Objective: To define the burden of illness and the demographic characteristics of perinatally HIV exposed children in Canada. Methods: Two national surveys of children born to HIV-infected mothers were conducted. The first survey captured information on all known cases up to March 1991, and the second, additional cases between April 1991 and May 1992.

Results: 220 children born to 204 HIV-infected mothers were identified. Quebec cases increased by 20% compared with 33% in Ontario (p&lt;.003) and 50% in the rest of the country (p&lt;.001).

Conclusions: This survey confirms a substantial case load and provides an initial demographic profile of diagnosed HIV exposed infants in Canada. Objectif: Établir le taux d'infection et les caractéristiques démographiques des nourrissons exposés au VIH au Canada. Méthode: Deux sondages nationaux de nour-rissons nés de mères infectées par le VIH furent menés. Le premier sondage a relevé les données sur tous les cas identifiés avant mars 1991, et le second, celles des cas identifiés entre avril 1991 et mai 1992. Résultats : 220 enfants nés de 204 mères infectées par le VIH furent identifiés. Le taux d'infection au Québec a augmenté de 20 %, comparé au 33 % d'augmentation en Ontario (p&lt;,003) et au 50 % dans le reste du pays (p&lt;,001). Le contact sexuel continue à être la voie de transmission la plus fréquente pour les mères infectées par le VIH. Conclusion : Ces sondages viennent confirmer un taux appréciable de cas et en fournissent un profil initial démographique parmi les nouveaux-nés diagnostiqués comme ayant été exposés au virus VIH au Canada.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0008-4263</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1920-7476</identifier><identifier>CODEN: CJPEA4</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Ottawa, ON: Canadian Public Health Association</publisher><subject>Acquired immune deficiency syndrome ; AIDS ; Biological and medical sciences ; Child health services ; Children ; Children &amp; youth ; Demography ; HIV ; HIV infections ; Human immunodeficiency virus ; Immunodeficiencies ; Immunodeficiencies.
