This article presents a retrospective study conducted in Tunis hospitals to assess the impact of COVID-19 on hospitalized pregnant women. The study population consisted of women aged 28-38 years with diverse educational backgrounds. Most women had no significant medical history, but some had controlled asthma or a prior pregnancy loss. Vaccination rates were high, with the majority receiving prenatal care. Common COVID-19 symptoms were reported in 73% of women, and most cases were mild with no maternal deaths. However, COVID-19 infection was associated with an increased risk of preterm delivery, respiratory distress, and miscarriage. Psychological distress was observed in all women. Delivery outcomes were significantly impacted, with a rise in Caesarean sections and a high preterm birth rate. Neonatal COVID-19 infection occurred in 6% of cases, but most newborns had good Apgar scores. The study emphasizes the importance of continued vaccination efforts and close monitoring throughout pregnancy. [Extracted from the article] |
