REVISÃO BIBLIOGRÁFICA SOBRE A PROFILAXIA DA CONJUNTIVITE GONOCÓCICA NO RECÉM-NASCIDO

Bibliografy review about prophylaxis of gonococcal ophthalmia in the newborn

Autoria SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

Resumos

Em 1881, Credé introduziu a instilação ocular de solução de nitrato de prata em recém-nascidos, logo após o parto, a fim de prevenir a conjuntivite gonocócica. Nãa bostante a utilização quase secular do Método de Credé, existe controvérsia entre os autores consultados, quanto à sua indicação, ao modo de aplicação e à substituição do agente anti-bacteriano. Os estudos sobre a conjuntivite neonatal gonocócica e a gonorréia em gestantes sei referem a determinados hospitais e não se encontraram estudos nacionais. O problema da falha e riscos do Método de Credé é atribuído à aplicação incorreta da técnica. A autora sugere a continuação do uso rotineiro do Método de Credé em todos os recém-nascidos, segundo normas especiais estabelecidas.

In 1881, Credé introduced the ocular instillation of silver-nitrate solution in the newborn, after the birth, for the prophylaxis of gonococcal ophthalmia neonatorum. Although the Credé Method has been used for almost one hundred years, there is controversy among authors about the indications, the way of application and the replacement of anti-bacterial agent. The studies about gonococcal ophthalmia neonatorum and gonorrhea in pregnant women were all made in hospitals; no national statistics are available. The problems of failure and risk of Credé Method is attributed to the improper application of silver-nitrate solution. The author suggests continuation of tlie routine of Credé Method in all newborns.
