Abstract

Background: Acute viral infections such as CYTOMEGALOVIRUS, RUBELLA, Herpes simplex and VARICELLA ZOSTER VIRUS in pregnant women can cause congenital infection with increased risk of developing congenital anomalies and morbidity. We aimed to identify young women susceptible to these viral infections in Bushehr.Materials and Methods: In 2009, 180 female were randomly selected from high schools and college students who were been assisted in marriage consulting clinics. In this cross sectional study, IgG antibodies against VARICELLA ZOSTER VIRUS (VZV), HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS I, II (HSV I, II), RUBELLA & CYTOMEGALOVIRUS (CMV) were determined by indirect enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) technique.Results: Mean age of the participants was 18.72 years old. %99.4 and %95 of sera were positive for CYTOMEGALOVIRUS & RUBELLA respectively and also Antibodies against VZV & HSV were detected in %74.5 & %69.4 of samples. There were no significant correlation between antibody seropositivity and education level, living places (rural or urban) and occupation. (P<0.05).Conclusion: Although, The findings of this study indicated that high prevalence rate of VZV & HSV 1, 2 in child bearing age women, but 1.3-1.4 of them, are still susceptible to these infections, so routine screening of these viruses is suggested in antenatal care.
