We report here on the management and outcomes of neonates born to mothers with active perinatal SARS-CoV-2 infection.
In this prospective study, eligible neonates were enrolled in a database to track in-hospital outcomes and followed up outpatient periodically till 2 months of age to assess for late onset symptoms of infection.
From April 2020 to February 2021, 67 mothers with perinatal SARS-CoV-2 infection and 70 at-risk neonates were included. Two neonates (3%) tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 within 48 h of life but remained asymptomatic during hospitalization and at all follow-up periods. Three infants were reported to have a febrile illness in 2 months follow up period, none of which was attributable to SARS-CoV-2.
Our data supports the emerging evidence which describes a probable low risk of vertical transmission of SARS-CoV-2. We also demonstrate a low risk of post-natal transmission or late-onset symptomatic infection with SARS-CoV-2.
我们在此报告患有围产期 SARS-CoV-2 感染的母亲所生新生儿的管理和结局。
在这项前瞻性研究中,符合条件的新生儿被纳入数据库以跟踪住院期间的结局,并定期进行门诊随访,直至 2 个月龄,以评估迟发性感染症状。
2020 年 4 月至 2021 年 2 月,纳入了 67 例围产期 SARS-CoV-2 感染的母亲和 70 例有风险的新生儿。2 名新生儿(3%)在出生后 48 小时内 SARS-CoV-2 检测呈阳性,但在住院期间和所有随访期间均无症状。3 名婴儿在 2 个月随访期间报告有发热疾病,但均与 SARS-CoV-2 无关。
我们的数据支持新兴证据,即 SARS-CoV-2 垂直传播的风险可能较低。我们还表明,SARS-CoV-2 的产后传播或迟发性有症状感染的风险较低。
