dc.description.abstract© 2016,Associacao Brasileira de Pos - Graduacao em Saude Coletiva. All rights reserved.The present study aimed to present an overview of recent national and international research on the Zika virus (ZIKV),as well as to explore possible action plans focused on children,their families and the health teams involved. Therefore,the study proposes the implementation of tracking systems in order to identify,describe and characterize the potential correlates of prenatal exposure to ZIKV,divided into three lines of action: 1. Diagnostic and etiological evaluation as well as screening of developmental problems in children confirmed or suspected of prenatal ZIKV infection. 2. Investigation of the emotional impact,quality of life,coping strategies and support network of the affected children and their families. 3. Training of multidisciplinary teams to conduct assessments and intervention programs throughout these children’s development,especially in the first three years of life. In conclusion,the recent ZIKV outbreak in Brazil and several other Latin American countries places a significant burden on the health care systems: to understand the real meaning of a potential new teratogen; to unravel the pathogenic mechanisms of ZIKV,particularly in a prevention perspective; and to recognize the broad spectrum of clinical manifestations in order to devise intervention programs.
