- Abstract
Objectives: to describe the use of affinity chromatographies and laboratory serologies in the evaluation of immunodiagnoses during prenatal. Methods: quantitative study, characterized as a descriptive observational research. Data was collected from the records of 46 pregnant women who were in prenatal follow up in the Primary Health Care in a capital in the South of Brazil. The data found was codified and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: a mean of 43.1 days was found to take place between the request of laboratory serology and the evaluation by a professional. It was also found that 21.7% of pregnant women did not collect the serologies requested during the first prenatal consultation, and that the affinity chromatographies were only applied in 10.8% of the participants. Conclusions: in spite of the studies for the improvement of prenatal consultations, for the provision of new technologies and for the permanent education offered to the professionals, there are still questions that make the actual implementation of affinity chromatographies more difficult.
