Keywords:
COVID-19, pregnancy, Modes of delivery, Pregnancy outcomesAbstract
The objective of this retrospective study is to compare modes of delivery of pregnant women with SARS-CoV-19 infections who gave birth in Krathumbaen Hospital in the aspect of maternal and neonatal outcomes. The 70 medical records of each group were reviewed since 1 January 2020 to 31 October 2020. Data were collected and analyzed.
The results showed that mean maternal age was 28.96±5.45 and 28.54±6.15 in vaginal route and cesarean section respectively. Both groups were mostly multipara and termed pregnancy. Signs and symptoms of COVID-19 and postpartum hemorrhage were not different between groups. In neonatal aspect, birthweight, birthweight for gestational age, birth asphyxia and pathological jaundice were also not different between groups. The vertical transmission was not detected. The incidence of hypothermia and tachypnea of neonates in cesarean section group was significantly higher than in vaginal delivery group (p<0.05).
In conclusion, management of pregnant women via intrapartum and postpartum periods, focusing on neonatal hypothermia and dyspnea could reduce complications in newborn.
