RESUMEN
Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal de 284 madres solteras con hemoglobinopatía detectada en el embarazo, en las cuales se desconocía la condición de pareja de alto riesgo por no haberse estudiado al esposo, atendidas en el Centro Provincial de Genética de Santiago de Cuba durante el quinquenio 2007-2011, con vistas a detectar la morbilidad oculta por drepanocitemia de tipos SS y SC en sus hijos, cuyas edades oscilaban entre 6 y 7 meses de edad. De los 180 niños estudiados (63,4 %), 5 resultaron enfermos (3 SS y 2 SC). Se brindó atención especializada a los afectados y asesoramiento a la madre y a los familiares. Se insiste en el desarrollo de programas que incrementen la cultura genética en la población, así como la asunción de una paternidad responsable.
ABSTRACT
A descriptive and cross-sectional study of 284 single mothers with hemoglobinopathies detected in pregnancy, in whom the couple's high risk was ignored as the husband had not been studied, and who were assisted in the Provincial Center of Genetics in Santiago de Cuba was carried out during the five year period 2007-2011, with the objective of detecting the hidden morbidity caused by sickle cell anemia types SS and SC in their children, whose ages ranged from 6 to 7 months of age. Of 180 studied children (63.4%) 5 were sick (3 SS and 2 SC). Specialized care was given to the affected ones and advice to the mother and the relatives. It is insisted in the development of programs that increase the genetic culture in the population as well as the assumption of a responsible paternity.
