Abstract

The features of the course of herpetic infections in women during pregnancy and the manifestations of the results of infection of their children are highlighted. The tactics of observation and principles of examination of these women have been determined. Genital herpes is the most common sexually transmitted ulcer disease. In terms of teratogenic significance, herpes viruses rank second after rubella, and CMV is classified as an indisputable viral teratogen. Fetal lesions vary from blasto- and embryopathies, accompanied by early termination of pregnancy, to late fetopathies with damage to various organs and systems in the newborn. The article presents the clinical and pharmacological characteristics of antiviral drugs for the prevention and treatment of herpes infections at the stages of planning and the course of pregnancy in antenatal clinics and hospitals.
