  • BACKGROUND: There is limited data regarding the safety of vaginal delivery in women infected with COVID-19 Our goal was to assess the safety of vaginal delivery in women infected with COVID-19 and the risk of neonatal infection METHODS: This was a single medical center cohort study Data were collected about the outcome of twenty-one women with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 infection who delivered between March 23, 2020, and May 8, 2020 RESULTS: Twenty-one gravidas were diagnosed with COVID-19 infection None required admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) and there were no fatalities Seventeen delivered vaginally and four by caesareans Apgar scores of all neonates were 9 at 1 min and 10 at 5 min One neonate was diagnosed with COVID-19 infection 24 h after birth CONCLUSIONS: Vaginal delivery in women infected with COVID-19 is not associated with a significant risk of neonatal infection
  • BACKGROUND: There is limited data regarding the safety of vaginal delivery in women infected with COVID-19. Our goal was to assess the safety of vaginal delivery in women infected with COVID-19 and the risk of neonatal infection. METHODS: This was a single medical center cohort study. Data were collected about the outcome of twenty-one women with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 infection who delivered between March 23, 2020, and May 8, 2020. RESULTS: Twenty-one gravidas were diagnosed with COVID-19 infection. None required admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) and there were no fatalities. Seventeen delivered vaginally and four by caesareans. Apgar scores of all neonates were 9 at 1 min and 10 at 5 min. One neonate was diagnosed with COVID-19 infection 24 h after birth. CONCLUSIONS: Vaginal delivery in women infected with COVID-19 is not associated with a significant risk of neonatal infection.
