Abstract

Mujeres embarazadas
El Colegio Americano de Obstetricia y Ginecología y la Sociedad para la Medicina Materno-Fetal han creado un algoritmo para ayudar a los profesionales a evaluar y tratar a las mujeres embarazadas con sospecha de infección por COVID-19 o infectadas.

At this time, very little is known about COVID-19, particularly related to its effect on pregnant women and infants, and there currently are no recommendations specific to pregnant women regarding the evaluation or management of COVID-19.

Currently available data on COVID-19 does not indicate that pregnant women are at increased risk. However, pregnant women are known to be at greater risk of severe morbidity and mortality from other respiratory infections such as influenza and SARS-CoV. As such, pregnant women should be considered an at-risk population for COVID-19. Adverse infant outcomes (eg, preterm birth) have been reported among infants born to mothers positive for COVID-19 during pregnancy. However, this information is based on limited data and it is not clear that these outcomes were related to maternal infection. Currently it is unclear if COVID-19 can cross through the transplacental route to the fetus. In limited recent case series of infants born to mothers infected with COVID-19 published in the peer-reviewed literature, none of the infants have tested positive for COVID-19 1.

While travel history is always an essential component of medical history intake, obstetrician–gynecologists and other health care practitioners should be vigilant in obtaining a detailed travel history as well as a history of exposure to people with symptoms of COVID-19 for all patients, including pregnant women presenting with fever or acute respiratory illness and should follow the CDC’s Interim Clinical Guidance for Management of Patients with Confirmed 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Infection and guidance for Evaluating and Reporting Persons Under Investigation (PUI). Of note, health care practitioners should immediately notify infection control personnel at their health care facility and their local or state health department in the event of a PUI for COVID-19
