Background.
Male involvement is an important determinant of prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV.
However, male involvement in prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV in Ethiopia is not well known.
Objectives.
To assess male partners involvement in prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV and associated factors in Arba Minch town and Arba Minch Zuria woreda.
Methods.
Community based study was conducted in Arba Minch town and Arba Minch Zuria district.
Multistage sampling technique was used and data were collected using interviewer administered standard questionnaire.
Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to determine the presence of statistically significant associations between the outcome variable and the independent variables.
Results.
The level of male involvement in PMTCT program in Arba Minch town and Zuria district was 53%.
Several factors appear to contribute to male involvement in the PMTCT program including age, residence, education level, knowledge on HIV, knowledge on PMTCT, accessibility of health facility, having weak perception for male involvement in PMTCT, having perception of ANC attendance being females’ responsibility, ever use of khat, and ever use of cigarette.
Conclusion.
Geographical accessibility of health facility and male’s knowledge on PMTCT should be improved to increase their involvement in PMTCT.
