- Abstract
Objective: to analyze the epidemiological profile and spatial distribution of reported cases of HIV/AIDS in children and pregnant women. Method: this is a quantitative, descriptive, retrospective, epidemiological, cross-sectional study. The sample consisted of all cases of seropositive pregnant women reported as infected with HIV in SINAN and children with AIDS registered in SIM, between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2016. Data were obtained through the System. Reporting Disease Information and Mortality Information System in residents of the municipality. Results: a total of 37 cases of seropositive pregnant women were reported, being these young women aged 16 to 20 years (32.5%), brown (70.3%), with less than eight years of study (70.3 %) and housewives (59.5%). There were only three cases of children with AIDS. Conclusion: it is concluded that the increase in the incidence rate of HIV in pregnant women, as well as the reported cases of deaths in children by AIDS, shows the failure in the care provided to these individuals.
