ABSTRACT
Introduction: The presence of vaginal infection in pregnant women is a risk factor that favors maternal and perinatal complications.Objective: To rise the knowledge about vaginal discharge syndrome in pregnant women and to modify the perception of risk and self-care.
Methods: A before and after study of quasi-experimental educational intervention in 21 pregnant women from clinics 9, 11 and 21 of Santiago Rafael Echezarreta Mulkay Polyclinic, San José de las Lajas, Mayabeque, Cuba from January to October 2017.
Results: pregnant women ranging 21 - 35 years of age (71.4%) predominated, 19% were university students. The knowledge about the risk factors of vaginal discharge syndrome was rated as good in 13 pregnant women (62%), before the educational intervention, after this it rose to 90.5%. Before performing the intervention, knowledge about the complications of vaginal discharge syndrome was good in one (4.8%), after the intervention it increased to 47.6%.
Conclusions: The knowledge about predisposing risk factors for vaginal discharge syndrome was the one that best dominated. Before the educational intervention, there was lack of knowledge about the symptoms and signs of pathological vaginal discharge and about the complications that a sexually transmitted infection can produce during pregnancy, not only for the mother but also for the product of conception. After this, the subjects' knowledge was satisfactory.
