• Abstract:

  Congenital syphilis is the

  result of the hematogenous dissemination

  of the bacterium Treponema pallidum by

  transplacental route. The disease has

  two stages: Early Congenital Syphilis

  and Late Congenital Syphilis. The state

  of Pernambuco presents risk factors

  related to low socioeconomic status, low

  educational level, sexual promiscuity

  and, especially, the lack of adequate

  prenatal care. The aim of this study was

  to analyze cases of congenital syphilis

  in the General Care Hospital (HAG) -

  Recife / PE, in the epidemiology sector.

  The data were obtained through the

  SINAN (System of Information and

  Notification of Injuries) records from the

  periods 2012 to 2017. The collection

  instrument contained 66 variables, of which 12 variables were selected. Data

  were analyzed through the Epiinfo

  system, using descriptive statistics. The

  project was approved through opinion

  No. 06189212.6.0000.5208, by the

  Research Ethics Committee of the Health

  Sciences Center of UFPE. Of the 82

  cases evaluated, 69 (84.15%) underwent

  prenatal care, of which 35 (50.72%)

  were diagnosed with prenatal congenital

  syphilis, and only 7 (20%) underwent

  appropriate treatment and 48 (78.7%) of

  the cases of congenital syphilis prevailed

  in the brown breed. It was observed that

  the proportion of patients with low level

  of education and low prenatal quality

  was higher among the cases of maternal

  congenital syphilis, suggesting necessary

  actions to intervene in this event.

  Congenital syphilis in this population

  evaluated was present in a little more

  than 50%, contributing to the fact that in

  Pernambuco several predisposing factors

  are found
