“…In February 2016, due to outbreaks in the Pacific and mainly in the Americas, ZIKV became an international public health emergency [ 2 ]. In the recent epidemic of 2015–2016, sexual, perinatal, and blood [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 ] transmission was evidenced, in addition to neurological complications, serious complications compatible with congenital Zika virus syndrome (CZVS), changes in growth and development of children whose mothers were exposed during pregnancy, low birth weight, and even fetal loss [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ].…”

The high incidence of Zika virus (ZIKV) infection in the period of 2015–2016 in Brazil may have affected linear height growth velocity (GV) in children exposed in utero to ZIKV. This study describes the growth velocity and nutritional status based on the World Organization (WHO) standards of children exposed to ZIKV during pregnancy and followed up in a tertiary unit, a reference for tropical and infectious diseases in the Amazon. Seventy-one children born between March 2016 and June 2018 were monitored for anthropometric indices: z-score for body mass index (BMI/A); weight (W/A); height (H/A) and head circumference (HC/A); and growth velocity. The mean age at the last assessment was 21.1 months (SD ± 8.93). Four children had congenital microcephaly and severe neurological impairment. The other 67 were non-microcephalic children (60 normocephalic and 7 macrocephalic); of these; 24.2% (16 children) had neurological alterations, and 28.8% (19 children) had altered neuropsychomotor development. Seventeen (24.2%) children had inadequate GV (low growth velocity). The frequencies of low growth among microcephalic and non-microcephalic patients are 25% (1 of 4 children) and 23.9% (16 of 67 children); respectively. Most children had normal BMI/A values during follow-up. Microcephalic patients showed low H/A and HC/A throughout the follow-up, with a significant reduction in the HC/A z-score. Non-microcephalic individuals are within the regular ranges for H/A; HC/A; and W/A, except for the H/A score for boys. This study showed low growth velocity in children with and without microcephaly, highlighting the need for continuous evaluation of all children born to mothers exposed to ZIKV during pregnancy.

“…A dengue na gestação está associada ao aumento do risco de perda fetal; o Zika à teratogenicidade, possui tropismo pelo Sistema Nervoso Central -SNC, podendo ocasionar complicações fetais, com efeito irreparáveis em crianças expostas no período fetal, desde a microcefalia a outras alterações no SNC (Charlier et al, 2017;Santos et al, 2020). A chikungunya na gestação pode desencadear, desde óbitos fetais, sem malformações, até o nascimento de recém-nascidos infectados, podendo desenvolver manifestações graves, como meningoencefalite e coagulação intravascular, levando à hospitalização neonatal prolongada em unidade de terapia intensiva (Torres et al, 2016).…”

A gestação é um período de mudanças que necessita de cuidados especiais. Ações de promoção e prevenção, voltadas para as doenças arbovirais, devem ser implementadas na assistência ao pré-natal. Este estudo tem como objetivo descrever o processo de construção e validação de cartilha educativa para a prevenção das arboviroses na gestação. Trata-se de um estudo metodológico, desenvolvido em três etapas - levantamento bibliográfico nas bases de dados (LILACS, SciELO e Pubmed), construção da cartilha educativa e validação por juízes. Selecionou-se onze juízes por conveniência. Realizou-se a validação de conteúdo da cartilha, por meio do Índice de Validade de Conteúdo (IVC) e do item Level Content Validity Index (I-CVI), ambos com no mínimo de 0,80. O resultado consistiu na validação de uma cartilha educacional que obteve IVC global entre 0,9 a 1,0 e para os itens avaliados por meio Level Content Validity Index entre 0,81 a 1,0. As sugestões dos juízes foram acatadas e adequadas para versão final. As cartilhas educativas estão presentes nas ações de educação em saúde, podem ser eficazes no aprendizado das gestantes e seus parceiros na prevenção das arboviroses durante o período gestacional.

This study is an addendum to a broader research, approved by the Research Ethics Committee Involving Human Beings at the Federal University of Sergipe (CEP / UFS) under the number CAAE 80424617.8.0000.5546. Study settingThe questionnaire was applied face-to-face at the outpatient clinics at the University Hospital (HU) of the Federal University of Sergipe (UFS) with the prior authorization of the person in charge of the sector. It was also made available online on the Google Forms® platform (Google Docs®) and disseminated on social networks (Instagram®, Facebook® and WhatsApp®). ParticipantsThe target population of this study were those responsible for patients who were diagnosed with microcephaly and who were undergoing consultation and / or therapeutic follow-up at the HU
