Background: Pregnant women are one of the high-risk groups in the coronavirus crisis. Given the maternal physiologic and immune function changes during pregnancy, pregnant women may be at a higher risk of being infected with SARS-CoV-2 and developing more complicated clinical events.
Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted on all pregnant women with COVID-19 who were hospitalized in Valiasr Hospital in Birjand. People were included by census method and the sample size was estimated to be 205 people. The research tool included a researcher-made checklist including demographic characteristics, clinical symptoms, medical examinations, and paraclinical results.
Results:. According to the results, the mean age of the mothers was 30.48 ± 5.32 years. The most common underlying diseases were hypothyroidism, gestational diabetes mellitus, hypertension and diabetes mellitus, respectively. Cough, myalgia, shortness of breath, fever, and nausea were the most common clinical symptoms observed in pregnant mothers with COVID-19. The results of inflammatory indices of ESR, and CRP were reported as 14.88 ± 30.52 mm/h, and 27.62 ± 34.30 mg/L, respectively. The mean length of hospitalization due to COVID-19 in pregnant
mothers was 3.05 ± 3.17 days. The mortality of COVID-19 among pregnant mothers was only 1 person (0.5%).
Conclusions: In conclusion, hypothyroidism was reported as the most common underlying disease in the studied pregnant women, which seems to be necessary to take measures to control this disease and prevent its adverse effects on the mother and the fetus.
