Pregnancy and Perinatal Outcomes of Women With Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) Pneumonia: A Preliminary Analysis

Coronavirus disease 2019 infection among asymptomatic and symptomatic pregnant women: two weeks of confirmed presentations to an affiliated pair of New York City hospitals

“…However, these case series are small. 8,9 Chen et al 9 described 9 cases of pregnant women affected by COVID-19 during pregnancy. None of these patients required ICU admission or mechanical ventilation.…”

“…12 Pregnant women may be more susceptible to respiratory pathogens and pneumonia compared with nonpregnant women owing to physiological adaptations to pregnancy, such as airway edema, diaphragmatic elevation, increased oxygen consumption, and pregnancy-related immunoalterations. 8 These adaptive changes also make women less tolerant to hypoxia. 8 Therefore, until more evidence is available, there is a reason to remain concerned for the clinical course of COVID-19 in pregnant women, despite encouraging early experiences here and elsewhere.…”

La radiología en el diagnóstico de la neumonía por SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19)

“…La alteración analítica más frecuente fue la linfopenia (12/15 pacientes). Todos los embarazos concluyeron con éxito, las pacientes se recuperaron y los recién nacidos no presentaron complicaciones 29 .…”

Pronóstico perinatal y de la paciente embarazada con infección por COVID-19

“…En otra investigación con 15 pacientes se observó que el embarazo y el parto no agravaron el curso de la sintomatología que, en todos los casos, fue leve con una recuperación satisfactoria 5 . Por último, otro estudio con 16 gestantes recomienda que, si hay una indicación de cirugía obstétrica, o la propia enfermedad crítica de COVID-19, la interrupción oportuna del embarazo no aumentará el riesgo de nacimiento prematuro y anoxia del recién nacido, siendo beneficioso para el tratamiento de la neumonía materna.…”
