Summary, etc. Abstract: <br/><br/>Background: HIV/AIDS is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in sub-Saharan Africa, the burden of pediatric HIV is high despite PMTCT 2.3 million children currently living with HIV which represents 7.5% of total number of people with HIV. 260,000 deaths in children with HIV annually and without treatment 50% of infected children will die before age of 2 years.<br/><br/>Methodology: A prospective hospital based study was done in 96 patients files, data were collected using checklist and registry books. Data analysis was done using Epidata version 3.1 and SPSS version 17.0 computer programs.<br/><br/>Results: A total of 96 children below five years were enrolled in the survey from 1st of August to 31st of August the year 2013 at Bugando medical centre pediatric wards giving a prevalence of 0.22%. The age of the patients enrolled ranged from one year and six month to 5 years. Six (6.3%) cases were in 18 months to 1 year and eleven months. Thirty-seven (38.5%) cases were in 2 years and eleven months. Twenty four (25.0%) cases were in 3 years to 3 years and eleven months. Fifteen (15.6%) cases were in 4 years to 4 years and eleven months. Fourteen (14.6%) cases were in 5 years. Out of 96 cases there were no known previously tested patients. In the survey eight children were tested for HIV and one patient was positive, seven were negative, eighty eight were not tested. The HIV positive child was male age range of 3 to 3.11 years and had HIV-TB co infection and did not die during this admission. This gave the incidence of 0% since there no known cases during the survey. <br/><br/>Conclusion: The burden of pediatric HIV/AIDS is high worldwide, in this study the incidence was 0% though this is because many children were not tested due to lack of resources at health facilities hence lack of concrete data on the real situation/trend of HIV. <br/>
