Resumen

SOARES, Karllian Kerlen Simonelli et al. Spatial analysis of syphilis in pregnancy and congenital syphilis in the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil, 2001-2018. Epidemiol. Serv. Saúde [online]. 2020, vol.29, n.1, e2018193.  Epub 06-Abr-2020. ISSN 1679-4974.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5123/s1679-49742020000100018.

Objective:

to analyze the spatial distribution of syphilis cases in pregnancy and congenital syphilis cases, from 2011 to 2018.

Methods:

this was an ecological study applying spatial analysis of syphilis cases in pregnancy and congenital syphilis reported on the Notifiable Diseases Information System; TerraView 4.2.0 software was used.

Results:

seventy-eight municipalities were analyzed, and evidence of a significant cluster was found for syphilis in pregnant women (Moran index=0.38; p=0.01) and for congenital syphilis (Moran index=0.31; p=0.01) in the greater Vitória region and north coast municipalities; along the north and metropolitan coastal regions some 30 municipalities were identified as having higher occurrence of the outcomes, as well as some 14 municipalities with a high proportion of congenital syphilis and a low proportion of syphilis in pregnancy.

Conclusion:

the study identified places where interventions and prenatal care professional training need to be channeled, with the aim of controlling syphilis in pregnancy and congenital syphilis.
