- Abstract
Objective: to characterize the profile of pregnant women attended at a Teaching Care Unit (UDA) with a focus on the Papanicolaou test during prenatal care. Method: This is a quantitative and descriptive study using the medical records between the years 2020 and 2022 of the users assisted at the UDA located in the city of Maceió/AL, as a source of data collection. Results: The results showed that most pregnant women were aged between 15 and 21 years and did not have information regarding race/color; 62.50% of pregnant women started prenatal care in the first trimester, had 4 to 6 consultations and only 4 out of a total of 40 pregnant women underwent cytopathological examination. Conclusion: The study revealed that most pregnant women were young, black, primigravidae and did not undergo the Papanicolau test during prenatal care; therefore, further studies are suggested to identify the reasons for low adherence.
