ObjectiveTo investigate the association between duration of rupture of membranes (ROM) and mother-to-child HIV transmission (MTCT) rates in the era of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART).DesignThe National Study of HIV in Pregnancy and Childhood (NSHPC) undertakes comprehensive population-based surveillance of HIV in pregnant women and children.SettingUK and Ireland.PopulationA cohort of 2398 singleton pregnancies delivered vaginally, or by emergency caesarean section, in women on cART in pregnancy during the period 2007-2012 with information on duration of ROM; HIV infection status was available for 1898 infants.MethodsDescriptive analysis of NSHPC data.Main outcome measuresRates of MTCT.ResultsIn 2116 pregnancies delivered at term, the median duration of ROM was 3hours 30minutes (interquartile range, IQR 1-8hours). The overall MTCT rate for women delivering at term with duration of ROM 4hours was 0.64% compared with 0.34% for ROM
