| Resumo: | Streptococcus agalactiae (GBS) is a gram-positive cocci, which have the
gastrointestinal tract as their reservoir, but can colonize the genitourinary tract. In
pregnant cisgender women, they can be asymptomatically or, as a urinary
infection, can compromise the progress of the pregnancy. The great medical
relevance of this microorganism lies in the possibility of it being vertically
transmitted to newborns and causing them complications, such as sepsis,
pneumonia and meningitis. The objective of this work was to carry out a literature
review of scientific articles based on the isolation and identification of
Streptococcus agalactiae in Brazilian pregnant cisgender women in the last 10
years. The methodology used was a bibliographic review of articles found in the
SciELO, PubMed and BIREME databases, using the descriptors “Streptococcus
agalactiae”, “pregnant women” and “genito-urinary infection”, in Portuguese,
English and Spanish, and then applied inclusion and exclusion criteria. Result:
20 articles were found that fit the research, for which it was observed that the
majority used identification and isolation methods for women from 35 to 37 weeks
of gestation, through microbial culture, but there were cases that were used PCR.
Prevalence data varied, but the vast majority were within the Brazilian average
(4.6 to 35,6%). The most common clinical complications found in women infected
with GBS were Diabetes Mellitus, high blood pressure and urinary infection. And
regarding bacterial resistance, although clindamycin and erythromycin were the
most cited drugs, it was observed that the highest resistance rates were found
for tetracycline. |
