To characterize the clinical and laboratory findings of maternal infection, we evaluated 166 cases of pregnant women infected with <jats:italic>Plasmodium<\/jats:italic> spp. in a prospective study conducted in northwestern Colombia during 2005\u20132006. A total of 89.8% (149 of 166) had fever or a history of fever in the past 48 hours, 9.0% (15 of 166) had severe malaria, of which 66.7% was caused by <jats:italic>Plasmodium vivax<\/jats:italic> and 33.3% by <jats:italic>P. falciparum<\/jats:italic>. Hepatic dysfunction was the main complication (9 of 15) observed. The proportion of severe cases was similar for both species (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.41). In malaria-endemic areas of Colombia, malaria in pregnancy has a broad clinical spectrum. In pregnant women, <jats:italic>P. vivax<\/jats:italic> infection frequently leads to organ-specific complications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4269\/ajtmh.12-0205","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,7,30]],"date-time":"2013-07-30T01:08:37Z","timestamp":1375146517000},"page":"520-526","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Maternal Clinical Findings in Malaria in Pregnancy in a Region of Northwestern Colombia"],"prefix":"10.4269","volume":"89","author":[{"given":"Juan Gabriel","family":"Pi\u00f1eros","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alberto","family":"Tobon-Casta\u00f1o","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gonzalo","family":"\u00c1lvarez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carmencita","family":"Portilla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Silvia","family":"Blair","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2795","reference":[{"key":"R1","series-title":"PLoS Med","first-page":"e1000221","article-title":"Quantifying the number of pregnancies at risk of malaria in 2007: a demographic study","volume":"7","author":"Dellicour","year":"2010"},{"issue":"(Suppl 1\u20132)","key":"R2","series-title":"Am J Trop Med","first-page":"28","article-title":"The burden of malaria in pregnancy in malaria-endemic areas","volume":"64","author":"Steketee","year":"2001"},{"key":"R3","series-title":"Acta Trop","first-page":"193","article-title":"The epidemiology and consequences of maternal malaria: A review of immunological basis","volume":"87","author":"Okoko","year":"2003"},{"key":"R4","series-title":"Lancet Infect Dis","first-page":"105","article-title":"Malaria in pregnancy: pathogenesis and immunity","volume":"7","author":"Rogerson","year":"2007"},{"key":"R5","series-title":"Trends Parasitol","first-page":"425","article-title":"Malaria in pregnancy and the endemicity spectrum: What can we learn?","volume":"20","author":"Nosten","year":"2004"},{"year":"2010","series-title":"Guidelines for the treatment of malaria","author":"World Health Organization","key":"R6"},{"key":"R7","series-title":"Acta Trop","first-page":"303","article-title":"Malaria in selected non-Amazonian countries of Latin America","volume":"121","author":"Arevalo-Herrera","year":"2012"},{"key":"R8","series-title":"Rev Med Hondur","first-page":"8","article-title":"Malaria y embarazo: observaciones cl\u00ednico-epidemiol\u00f3gicas en dos zonas geogr\u00e1ficas de Honduras","volume":"69","author":"Fern\u00e1ndez","year":"2001"},{"key":"R9","series-title":"Invest Clin","first-page":"455","article-title":"Malaria y embarazo.
