ABSTRACT

The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of infectious diseases, such as syphilis, acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and hepatitis B and C, in pregnant women who undertook their prenatal care in thirteen basic health units (BHU) in São Paulo city. The efficiency of the reference and counter-reference system in such prenatal infectious diseases was evaluated considering the medical recordings of the final result of the pregnancy and the vertical transmission rates of these diseases. It consists of an epidemiologic study whose observations were based on the notes of the prenatal medical and nurse records of pregnant women who had infectious diseases susceptible to vertical transmission and final infectious status registers of their concepts. Women's syphilis prevalence was 0. 86 percent, HIV and Hepatitis B was 0. 22 percent and Hepatitis C was 0. 36 percent. It's possible to conclude that there is no register of the reference and counter-reference system of these infectious diseases analyzed at the thirteen basic health units of the south-east region of São Paulo city evaluated in 2005. This lack of register makes it impossible to know the preventive measures taken and the vertical transmission rates. Making the professionals and the Health Coordination authorities aware of the importance of the dynamic of the prenatal attendance is necessary.


O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar a prevalência dos agravos, tais como sífilis, síndrome da imunodeficiência adquirida (SIDA) e hepatite por vírus B e C, em gestantes que realizaram pré-natal em treze unidades básicas de saúde (UBS) no município de São Paulo e avaliar a eficácia do sistema de referência e contra referência para esses agravos, considerando o registro nas UBS do resultado final da gestação e as taxas de transmissão vertical desses agravos. Constitui-se de um estudo epidemiológico, cujo objeto de observação foi anotações em prontuário de atendimento pré-natal das gestantes com infecções passíveis de transmissão vertical e seus conceptos. A prevalência de sífilis foi 0, 86 por cento; de HIV e Hepatite B, 0, 28 por cento;e de Hepatite C, 0, 36 por cento. Conclui-se que não há registro do sistema de referência e contra referência para os agravos estudados nas 13 unidades básicas de saúde da região sudeste do Município de São Paulo que foram avaliadas em 2005. Este fato impossibilita o conhecimento das medidas profiláticas efetuadas e das taxas de transmissão vertical. A sensibilização do profissional e das Coordenadorias de Saúde sobre a importância da dinâmica do atendimento pré-natal é necessária.
