Resumo: Objective: The aim of this study was to identify the serumprevalence of non-treponemal antibodies in pregnant women seen in a clinical analysis laboratory in the northwest of Rio Grande do Sul.Materials and Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was carried out, through which non-treponemal syphilis screening tests (VDRL) of pregnant women seen in a clinical analysis laboratory in the northwest of Rio Grande do Sul during 2018 were evaluated. Reagent VDRL examination, indicative of syphilis, was considered when the test titer was greater than 1: 4.Results: Of the 75 pregnant women with a request for a VDRL exam, 10 (13.3%) obtained a VDRL result with a titre greater than 1: 4, this value being suggestive of positivity for syphilis.Conclusion: In this study, we evidenced an important serumprevalence of non-treponemal antibodies in pregnant women, reinforcing the need for public policies on social and health actions aimed at preventing the transmission of Treponema pallidum, as well as to carry out early diagnosis and treatment, in order to reduce Maternal Syphilis and, consequently, Congenital Syphilis.

Foi considerado exame de VDRL reagente, indicativo de sífilis, quando o título do teste foi superior a 1:4.Resultados: Das 75 gestantes com solicitação de exame VDRL, 10 (13,3%) obtiveram resultado de VDRL com titulação superior à 1:4, sendo esse valor sugestivo de positividade para sífilis.Conclusão: Neste estudo, evidenciamos uma importante soroprevalência de anticorpos não-treponêmicos em gestantes, reforçando a necessidade de políticas públicas de ações sociais e de saúde voltadas para prevenção da transmissão do Treponema pallidum, bem como para realizar o diagnóstico e tratamento precoce, a fim de reduzir a Sífilis Materna e, consequentemente, a Sífilis Congênita.Universidade LaSalle - Unilasalle CanoasRodrigues, Kelly SilvaSchneider, Fatima Rosemari LemosBonaldi, Jênifer SallesParisi, Mariana Migliorini2020-09-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/view/685710.18316/sdh.v8i3.6857Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano; v. 8, n. 3 (2020); p. 133-137Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano; v. 8, n. 3 (2020); p. 133-1372317-8582reponame:Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humanoinstname:Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)instacron:UNILASALLEporhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/view/6857/pdfhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/downloadSuppFile/6857/1441Direitos autorais 2020 Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humanoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-03-29T14:39:41Zoai:ojs.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br:article/6857Revistahttp://www.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimentohttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/oaisdh@unilasalle.edu.br2317-85822317-8582opendoar:2022-03-29T14:39:41Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano - Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)false
