Abstract

Objective: to describe the epidemiological profile of pregnant women affected by COVID-19 and their newborns in a teaching hospital in western Paraná. Methodology: documentary, retrospective, cross-sectional research, with consultation of institutional documents, health information systems for notification and full reading of electronic medical records of pregnant women admitted to a teaching hospital. The period investigated was from March 2020 to April 2022, comprising a sample of 121 pregnant women hospitalized due to COVID-19 and 114 newborns, being analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: pregnant women infected with SARS-CoV-2 did not have any newborn infected at birth, 13 (10.74%) pregnant women required admission to the Intensive Care Unit, 4 (3.30%) maternal deaths and 3 (2.63%) fetal deaths occurred. Most births were by cesarean section (n=61; 50.41%), with low birth weight (n=24; 21.05%) and prematurity (n=25; 21.92%), with higher rates compared to those prior to the pandemic. Conclusion: the epidemiological scenario presented was similar to that presented in the literature, verifying the non-vertical contamination. As maternal and neonatal outcomes, there was a higher occurrence of cesarean sections, maternal deaths, prematurity and low birth weight among those infected.
