This case report describes a young woman, pregnant in week 33, who was admitted to hospital with severe COVID-19 pneumonia. As her condition worsened over the next few days with increasing respiratory distress and oxygen needs, it was decided to perform a subacute caesarean delivery. The patient improved rapidly over the next days following the delivery, and the neonate, who tested negative for COVID-19, was vigorous after two days of nasal continuous positive airway pressure. This case emphasises that delivery by cesarean section should be considered as a treatment option in pregnant women with severe COVID-19 infection.
本病例报告描述了一名33周妊娠的年轻女性,因重症新型冠状病毒肺炎入院。在接下来的几天里,她的病情恶化,呼吸窘迫和氧气需求增加,于是决定进行亚急性剖宫产。产后的接下来几天里,患者迅速康复,新冠病毒检测呈阴性的新生儿在接受两天经鼻持续气道正压通气后情况良好。该病例强调,对于感染重症新冠病毒的孕妇,剖宫产应被视为一种治疗选择。
