Abstract

ABSTRACT: The gestational period is not an infection problem that affects maternal and fetal health. There are risks of developing infectious diseases transmitted vertically, which can lead to several problems in the development and vitality of the future concept. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the frequency of infectious diseases in pregnant women submitted to prenatal screening, using the filter paper technique in the city of Aparecida de Goiânia-GO. This is a cross-sectional study of 1,328 pregnant women submitted to prenatal screening in the period from 2011 to 2016, using the filter paper technique. After confirming the positive results on the paper filter, confirmation was carried out and the frequencies found were 22.52% for syphilis, 14.23% for toxoplasmosis, 7.45% for Chagas' disease, 4.74% for hepatitis B virus (HBsAg), 3.77% for HIV virus, 1.73% for hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV), 1.05% for HTLV virus, 0.98% for cytomegalovirus and 0.15% for rubella. The importance of screening for infectious diseases with vertical transmission is not the present study, mainly due to the frequency of the number of cases, toxoplasmosis, Chagas disease and hepatitis B virus, even though it is low in comparison with other studies. Through early diagnosis, it is possible to avoid vertical transmission and/or decrease fetal impairment.
