Abstract

Introduction: Zika virus fever is an acute febrile disease caused by the arbovirus of the genus Flavivirus of the family Flaviviridae, transmitted by the female mosquito Aedes Aegypti, the same vector of dengue, chikungunya and yellow fever. Objective: to describe the epidemiological profile of pregnant women with suspected Zika virus fever, in the State of Paraíba. Methodology: this is a descriptive quantitative study, carried out through the Information System for Notifiable Diseases, of the Health Department of the State of Paraíba between March 2016 and March 2017. Results: 329 suspected cases were obtained, reported in 49 municipalities, of which Gurjão had the highest incidence. The age group was between 20 and 30 years old (n = 170) and the majority of brown women (n = 220), presenting 124 cases in the second trimester of pregnancy. Of the 329 suspected cases, 233 were confirmed and 96 cases were discarded. Of the total, 127 were cured, 1 died and 201 cases without information. Final Considerations: this study highlights the importance of notifications of cases of the Zika virus in the State of Paraíba, enabling early diagnosis and adequate assistance.
