BACKGROUND: According to the Ministry of Health, in 2013 12 177 pregnant women were HIV-positive. Making it necessary to pay special attention to children exposed to HIV, assessing their development and growth thereby promoting normal life like any other child. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate the physical, motor and some biochemical parameters of HIV-exposed infants, treated at SAE - Specialized care of Sinop-MT Service. DESCRIPTION METHODOLOGY: The study included 10 HIV-exposed infants, treated at SAE Sinop. It is a qualitative, descriptive / observational. . The study explores the field with a quantitative approach, investigating possible changes that may be manifested in these children, use of antiretroviral treatment and socioeconomic aspects that consequently interfere with child development. This study was submitted to the Ethics and Research Committee, protocol number 39544714.5.0000.5541.RESULTS: As to the results, 20% of children were overweight and obese, 30% showed high height for age, mean BMI of 17.1. As for the socio economic conditions, the average family income is R $ 1568.00, an average of 4 people in homes, 70% of women were married and 30% single. As the mode of delivery, 90% underwent elective cesarean and 10% vaginal delivery. 90% used intravenous AZT and 100% used AZT syrup. Alterations in blood count tests of some children were observed, indicating that the ART may induce disorders such as decrease in hematocrit and hemoglobin, thus anemia and thrombocytopenia. Regarding the examination of HIV viral load, 60% had undetectable result. As for the exposed child development assessment was similar to that of children without exposure to HIV, showing that child development growth was not affected. CONCLUSIONS: More research should be done in this direction, seeking to know the effects of ART in children and possible changes that it can induce.
