Abstrakt: Background: To evaluate the relationship between coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection at different time points during pregnancy and perinatal outcomes. Methods: This retrospective study included 611 women who hospitalized for delivery between December 7 and April 30, 2023. Based on the different pregnancy weeks infected with COVID-19, the participants were divided into four groups: Group 1 (14–27+6 weeks gestation), Group 2 (28–36+6 weeks gestation), Group 3 (37–39+6 weeks gestation), and Group 4 (≥ 40 weeks gestation). Data including maternal demographic characteristics, clinical profiles, and perinatal outcomes were analyzed. Results: There were no significant differences in maternal demographic characteristics among the four groups (P > 0.05). Compared to Groups 3 and 4, a higher rate of fever was noted in Groups 1 and 2 (P < 0.05). The frequency of preeclampsia and gestational diabetes mellitus showed a decreasing trend as pregnancy progressing (P < 0.05). Preterm delivery and neonatal intensive care unit admission were more frequently observed in Groups 1 and 2 than in Groups 3 and 4 (P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that the timing of gestation in which COVID-19 was infected was not associated with preterm delivery and neonatal intensive care unit admission (P > 0.05), whereas gestational age at COVID-19 infection was negatively associated with the occurrence of preeclampsia and gestational diabetes mellitus (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Gestational age at COVID-19 infection is a simple parameter that predicts adverse perinatal outcomes to aid clinicians in determining to provide early enhanced prenatal care and increased monitoring to reduce maternal complications.
