Objective: The aim of this study to identify the factors associated with the receiving of antenatal HIV testing in Vietnam. Method: We used data from the representative, cross-sectional round of Vietnam Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey conducted during 2010-2011. Women aged 15-49 who had a live birth within 2 years preceding the date of the interview were adopted as the subjects of our study (n=1363). The utilization of HIV testing during the last pregnancy were considered as main outcomes variable. Descriptive statistics and multivariate logistic regression methods were employed in the analysis. Results: The prevalence of receiving antenatal HIV testing among pregnant women was 28.8%. The factors were associated with HIV testing receiving: minority group (AOR 0.46, 95%CI0.24-0.90), having 4 times or more ANC visits (AOR 2.27, 95%CI 1.58-3.28), gave birth in government hospital (AOR 2.02, 95%CI 1.02-4.0). The women with middle and high HIV/AIDS related knowledge were more two times more likely to receive HIV testing. Women who had negative attitude towards partner violence were less likely to receive HIV testing. Conclusions: Developing strategies that include the above interventions could play a crucial role in achieving the increase the HIV test utilization among pregnant women in Vietnam.
