RUIZ, Raúl Martín. Programa de prevención de anemia falciforme (I): Evaluación de la indicación de electroforesis de hemoglobina. Rev Cubana Med Gen Integr [online]. 1996, vol.12, n.2, pp. 132-135. ISSN 1561-3038.
Indication of hemoglobin electrophoresis at the first prenatal visit was stablished in Havana City in 1991 and 1992 with the purpose of detecting high risk couples for sickle cell anemia, as early as possible during pregnancy. The accomplishment of this measure is analyzed in 72 polyclinics in the last trimester of 1992, by checking the indications. Indications with less than 13 weeks of pregnancy (early indications) represented 43,4 % of a total of 3 416. Thirty two polyclinics 44,4 % did not reach 50 % of early indications, other 32 were between 50 and 74 %, and only 8 (11,1 %) amounted to at least 75 %. We conclude that to put into practice this measure more diffusion is necessary among primary health care level physicians
