ResumoThe aim was to identify the epidemiological profile of pregnant women and newborns with syphilis in a neighborhood of São José do Rio Preto/SP. Descriptive, quantitative and retrospective study, using medical records and the database of the Information System for Notifiable Diseases of 28 pregnant women with gestational syphilis and five newborns with congenital syphilis, at the Solo Sagrado UBSF in the area covered by the Pinheirinho de Pinheirinho Region. São José do Rio Preto/SP in the period 2019/2020. In 2019, 268 pregnant women underwent prenatal care and 21 of them were notified with a diagnosis of gestational syphilis, only four babies with congenital syphilis tested positive in the treponemal/non-treponemal test at delivery/curettage and two of them evolved to miscarriage. In 2020, 275 pregnant women underwent prenatal care and seven were diagnosed and notified with gestational syphilis and only one baby with congenital syphilis tested positive in the treponemal/non-treponemal test at delivery. Considering that the main difficulties encountered in reducing vertical transmission are associated with late diagnosis or non-treatment, or inadequate treatment of pregnant women, in addition, socioeconomic, demographic and care factors contribute to the increase in its incidence.
