Abstract
Objective: To describe and analyze the prevalence of syphilis diagnosis in pregnant women, as well as their social determinants, in the town of Passos/MG from January 2015 to June 2020. Methods: This was a descriptive, retrospective research, with a quantitative and qualitative approach, carried out based on data from the Notifiable Diseases Information System (SINAN). The study participants included patients who had been followed up by the Maternal and Child Program (PROMAI) of Santa Casa de Misericórdia de Passos (SCMP). Stratification was also performed according to race, age group, gestational trimester of diagnosis and concomitant treatment of the partner. Results: 121 cases of gestational syphilis (GS) were attended by PROMAI in the period in question, 89 from Passos and 32 from other municipalities in the region. Mostly, a profile of young pregnant women with a late diagnosis was found, with no correlation of race. The information about the concomitant treatment of the partners was, for the most part, unknown. Conclusion: We believe that this study can contribute to the theme as well as highlight the need for professional training aimed at properly filling out the SINAN notification forms, aiming to reduce underreporting and identify reliable patient profiles.
