| Summary: | Abstract: The screening for infection diseases in pregnancy by laboratory tests can reduce the risk of perinatal and maternal morbidity and mortality. The objective of this study was to identify the presence of vertically transmitted infections: toxoplasmosis, HIV, syphilis, hepatitis B and C, for the period November 2013 to May 2014. Descriptive study, the sample consisted of 175 pregnant women between 14 to 43 years, women who were discarded for Toxoplasmosis, Reaginic Antibodies by qualitative VDRL, HIV, hepatitis B (Anti-HBsAg Anti-HBsAg, anti-Core); hepatitis C (Total antibodies), through ultramicroELISA (UMELISA). The results showed 27.4% positive for Anti-Toxoplasma gondii antibodies, with 31.2% of these pregnant women having antibody titers of 1/512. Anti-HIV antibodies were positive by 0.6%. 99.4% showed Nonreactive VDRL. 38.9% were positive for antibodies against the hepatitis B surface antigen, the markers HBsAg and anti-Core were negative by 100%; 1.7% were positive for total antibodies against Hepatitis C. It is concluded that the screening of infectious diseases that represent risk factors for vertically transmission infections during pregnancy, is one of the most appropriate tools to diagnose these diseases and prevent maternal and infant morbidity and mortality. Resumen: El despistaje de infecciones mediante pruebas de laboratorio permite disminuir el riesgo de morbimortalidad perinatales y maternas. El objetivo del estudio fue identificar la presencia de infecciones de transmisión vertical: toxoplasmosis, VIH, sífilis, Hepatitis B y C, durante el periodo noviembre 2013 a mayo 2014. Estudio descriptivo, muestra conformada por 175 embarazadas entre 14 a 43 años, a las cuales se les descarto Toxoplasmosis, Anticuerpos Reagínicos por VDRL cualitativa, VIH, hepatitis B (Anti-HBsAg, HBsAg, anti-Core); hepatitis C (Anticuerpos totales), a través de ultramicroELISA (UMELISA). Los resultados arrojaron Anticuerpos Anti-Toxoplasma gondii positivas en 27,4%, donde el 31,2% de estas embarazadas presentaron ... |
