ABSTRACT

Informações sobre a melhor estratégia para triagem sorológica da toxoplasmose em gestantes são escassas e poucos estudos mencionam o uso de amostras de sangue capilar. Realizou-se uma revisão sistemática para pesquisar os métodos sorológicos empregados em programas de triagem pré-natal da toxoplasmose no mundo e as características principais destes programas, com busca nas bases de dados PUBMED e LILACS. Foram selecionados artigos referentes a programas de triagem sorológica pré-natal da toxoplasmose que descrevessem a amostra (sangue capilar ou soro) e o teste sorológico utilizado. Foram encontrados 1554 trabalhos no PUBMED e 242 na LILACS, sendo 58 em duplicata. Foram analisados 47 artigos finais. Os testes sorológicos de triagem citados com maior frequência foram os imunoenzimáticos para detecção de IgG (19 ou 40,4%) e IgM (18 ou 38,3%) e, entre os testes confirmatórios, o mais utilizado foi o teste de avidez de IgG (14 ou 29,8%). Todos os estudos analisados utilizaram amostras de soro para a triagem pré-natal da toxoplasmose.


The best strategy for toxoplasmosis serological screening in pregnant women is not completely defined and few studies mention the use of capillary blood samples. A systematic review of the literature was conducted to investigate the serological methods used in prenatal screening programs of toxoplasmosis in the world and the main features of these programs, with search in PubMed and LILACS databases. We selected articles that described their serological prenatal screening programs, with mention of the sample (capillary blood or serum) and of the serological tests used. We found 1554 articles in PubMed database and 242 articles in LILACS, with 58 duplicates. 47 final articles were analyzed. The serological screening tests most frequently cited were immunoassays for the detection of IgG (19, 40.4%) and IgM (18, 38.3%) and between confirmatory tests, the most used was IgG avidity test (14, 29.8%). All analyzed studies used serum samples for toxoplasmosis prenatal screening. There is need for studies assessing and testing different samples in longitudinal studies.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Evaluar la efectividad del cribado combinado de primer trimestre para la detección prenatal de aneuploidías tras 6 años de implantación en nuestro servicio y su repercusión en la disminución de pruebas diagnósticas invasivas. Se propone establecer un protocolo para incorporar el estudio de ADN fetal en sangre materna a partir de las revisiones bibliográficas publicadas. MÉTODO: Se evaluó el riesgo de anomalía cromosómica fetal en 3177 gestaciones mediante cribado combinado de primer trimestre entre enero de 2011 y diciembre de 2014. Se revisaron las amniocentesis realizadas desde que se instauró el cribado combinado en 2008 comparándolas con las de los 5 años anteriores. RESULTADOS: La tasa de detección del cribado para trisomía 21 fue del 94,4% y la tasa de falsos positivos de 6,4%. En el año 2005 estábamos realizando 194 amniocentesis, tras 6 años de implantación del cribado, en el año 2013 se realizaron 35 amniocentesis lo que implica una disminución del 70%. CONCLUSIONES: El cribado combinado de primer trimestre ha demostrado una mayor tasa de detección para trisomía 21 que el cribado de segundo trimestre y/o la edad materna, además de que ha llevado a una importante reducción en el número de pruebas invasivas. En los próximos años la incorporación del estudio de ADN fetal mejorará la detección de aneuploidías, con una drástica disminución de las pruebas invasivas por lo que se hace necesario la implantación de nuevos protocolos.


AIMS: To evaluate the effectiveness of first trimester combined screening in the prenatal detection of aneuploidy after 6 years of implantation in our service and its impact in reducing invasive diagnostic tests. It is proposed to establish a protocol to incorporate the study of fetal DNA in maternal blood from published literature reviews. METHODS: The risk of fetal chromosomal anomalies was assessed in 3177 pregnancies with first trimester combined screening between January 2009 and December 2014. The amniocenteses performed were checked against those of the previous 5 years. RESULTS: The detection rate of screening for trisomy 21 was 94.4% and the false-positive rate was 6.4%. In 2005 there were 194 amniocenteses. In 2013, 5 years after the introduction of screening, 68 amniocenteses were performed, representing a 70% reduction in invasive procedures. CONCLUSIONS: First trimester combined screening has shown a higher detection rate for trisomy 21 that the second trimester screening and/or maternal age, and has substantially reduced the use of invasive prenatal diagnostics procedures. In the coming years, the incorporation of the study of fetal DNA improve the detection of aneuploidys with a drastic reduction of invasive tests so that, the implementation of new protocols is necessary.

ABSTRACT

O rastreamento fetal de aneuploidia apresentou uma evolução fantástica a partir da avaliação individual da idade materna até os dias atuais, na qual evidências sugerem que o teste de avaliação do DNA fetal livre no sangue materno detecta mais de 99% dos casos de trissomia do cromossomo 21 e, aproximadamente, 98% dos casos de trissomia do 18 e 92%, do 13, com taxas de falso-positivo de 0,1; 0,1 e 0,3%, respectivamente. Recentemente, o grupo de trabalho em boas práticas médicas da Federação Internacional de Ginecologia e Obstetrícia recomendou que todas as gestantes, independentemente da idade, deveriam realizar uma avaliação de risco para aneuploidias por meio da translucência nucal, do teste combinado ou do teste de DNA fetal livre no sangue materno. O teste invasivo para diagnóstico de aneuploidia não deveria ser realizado considerando apenas a idade materna como fator de risco. O objetivo desta revisão foi apresentar esta nova ferramenta de rastreio, presente em muitos centros, e descrever as estratégias para implementação de tal tecnologia na prática clínica diária.(AU)


Screening for fetal aneuploidy has a tremendous evolution from maternal age to now where recent evidence suggests that cell-free DNA testing in maternal blood can detect more than 99% of cases of trisomy 21, about 98% of trisomy 18, and 92% of trisomy 13, with respective false-positive rates of 0.1, 0.1, and 0.3%. Recently, the working group on the best practice on maternal fetal medicine of the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics has recommended as a good medical practice that pregnant women, regardless of maternal age, be offered prenatal assessment for aneuploidy through nuchal translucency, combined test, or cell-free DNA testing. The invasive procedure for diagnosis of aneuploidy should be avoided taking into account only the maternal age as a risk factor nowadays. The purpose of this review was to present this new screening tool available in most centers and to describe the strategies for implementation of this technology on the daily clinical practice.(AU)
