ResumoA gestação, em geral, repercute emocionalmente na mulher e, mais intensamente, quando associada a uma situação clínica comprometedora da saúde do filho, como na possibilidade de transmissão vertical do HIV. Nesse contexto, o presente estudo teve por objetivo investigar as significações subjetivas das gestantes portadoras de HIV sobre a realização das ações de prevenção da transmissão vertical. Para tanto, recorreu-se a uma investigação do tipo transversal, de natureza descritiva e exploratória, com abordagem qualitativa, da qual, segundo o critério de saturação do conteúdo, participaram 12 gestantes. Os resultados demonstraram que as gestantes têm dificuldades imediatas para aderir aos medicamentos antirretrovirais, relutância em aceitar a possível indicação do parto cesáreo e frustração, permeada por sentimentos de culpa, diante da impossibilidade de amamentação do filho. Observa-se, assim, a necessidade de ações de apoio socioemocional a serem desenvolvidas pelos profissionais de saúde, especialmente os psicólogos, para favorecer o enfrentamento da transmissão vertical.Palavras-chave: aspectos psicológicos; gestação; HIV; transmissão vertical de doença infecciosa. AbstractPregnant with HIV/AIDS: Psychological aspects related to the vertical transmission prevention. Gestation, in general, emotionally influences in women's life and, more intensively, when it's associated to a compromising clinical situation of the child's health, as in the possibility of a HIV vertical transmission. In this context, the current study aimed the investigation of the subjective meanings of the pregnant women who carry the HIV and that have been subjected to actions to prevent the vertical transmission. For that, a transversal, descriptive and exploratory -with a qualitative approach -investigation was used. In that investigation, according to the saturation of the content, 12 pregnant women participated. The results demonstrated that the pregnant women have difficulty to adhere the antiretroviral medications, reluctancy to accept the possible indication of a c-section and frustration, fulfilled with feelings of guilt due o the impossibility of breastfeeding their child. It was observed, therefore, the necessity of socio-emotional support actions that must be developed by the health professionals, mainly the psychologists, in order to cope with vertical transmission.

Objective: To characterize near miss neonatal morbidity in tertiary hospitals in a capital city of Northeast Brazil based on Health Information Systems, and to identify differences regarding indicators of near miss cases, allowing the surveillance of newborns with risk of death.Methods: A cross-sectional study carried out in hospitals with neonatal intensive care unit, whose neonatal near miss cases in 2012 were identified from a deterministic linkage between the Mortality Information System and the Live Birth Information System. The biological variables of children, variables related to maternal characteristics and indicators of near miss were calculated by type of service and hospital. Biological variables of children, variables related to maternal characteristics and near miss indicators were calculated by service type and hospital and then compared by ratio difference test, parametric and non-parametric tests for measures of central tendency.Results: Of 24,254 live births, 2,098 cases of neonatal morbidity near miss were identified, most of them concentrated in the public hospitals (89.9%). The combination of birth weight and gestational age had the largest number of cases in both segments, public (43.5%) and private (46%). Variations in neonatal near miss indicators were observed between hospitals, which suggests assistance problems.Conclusions: The concept of neonatal near miss, its applicability with data from Health Information Systems, and its indicators are a preliminary tool to monitor hospital care for newborns by signaling health services that require in-depth evaluation and investments for quality improvement.
