Abstract

Background. Infectious diseases are transmissible from mother to unborn child. Appropriate treatment during antenatal care is crucial.  Objective. To determine whether routine antenatal tests (syphilis, HIV, Rhesus factor) were performed in women delivering at National District Hospital (NDH), Bloemfontein, South Africa, and whether treatment was initiated for women testing positive for these infections.  Methods. This descriptive retrospective study consisted of 2 425 women who delivered between January and December 2016. Antenatal care history was obtained from the delivery register.  Results. Nearly all women were tested for syphilis (99.1%), HIV (99.9%) and Rhesus factor (99.9%). A third (33.3%) of the patients who tested positive for syphilis were untreated. Of the 27.0% of patients who tested HIV-positive, 99.7% were recorded to have been on treatment. Just over half (54.3%) of the patients who tested Rhesus-negative received prophylaxis.  Conclusion. A record of routine antenatal testing of women delivering at NDH was found. The reaction to positive results could improve.

2016年南非布隆方丹国家地区医院分娩妇女产前常规检查审计
背景传染病可由母亲传染给未出生的孩子。产前护理期间的适当治疗至关重要。目标。确定是否对在南非布隆方丹国家地区医院分娩的妇女进行了常规产前检查(梅毒、艾滋病毒、恒河猴因子),以及是否对这些感染检测呈阳性的妇女进行治疗。方法。这项描述性回顾性研究包括2425名在2016年1月至12月期间分娩的女性。产前护理史是从分娩登记处获得的。结果。几乎所有女性都接受了梅毒(99.1%)、艾滋病毒(99.9%)和恒河猴因子(99.9%)的检测。三分之一(33.3%)的梅毒检测呈阳性的患者没有得到治疗。在27.0%的艾滋病毒检测呈阳性的患者中,99.7%的患者接受了治疗。在恒河猴检测呈阴性的患者中,超过一半(54.3%)的患者接受了预防治疗。结论。发现了在NDH分娩的妇女的常规产前检查记录。对积极结果的反应可能会有所改善。
