مستخلص: Objective: This study aimed to examine the effects of infection with the Delta variant of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) on the clinical course, laboratory parameters, and neonatal outcome in pregnant women.
Material and Methods: A total of 96 pregnant women who tested positive for the Delta variant of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) causing COVID-19 were retrospectively examined. The pregnant women were divided into three groups: Asymptomatic; non-severe; and severe. Age, obstetric history, symptoms and findings, blood tests, medication and vaccination history, clinical course, and perinatal outcome of pregnant women were analyzed.
Results: Pregnant women who tested positive for the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 had an intensive care unit (ICU) admission rate of 9.4% and a mortality rate of 5.2%. Pregnant women in the severe disease group had significantly higher rates of preterm birth and cesarean section compared with the non-severe and asymptomatic group. Pregnant women in the severe group had high C-reactive protein (CRP) levels at the time of admission. White blood cell count (WBC) and procalcitonin levels were increased in clinical follow-up in women in the severe group.
Conclusion: The Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 was found to increase mortality rates in pregnant women compared to pre-Delta variants of COVID-19. In pregnant women infected with the Delta variant, advanced gestational age at diagnosis, high CRP, WBC, and procalcitonin levels were significantly correlated with poor prognosis. Pregnant women infected with the Delta variant and with severe COVID-19 had an increased risk for preterm delivery and cesarean section. Although newborns of women with severe disease were found to have significantly higher rates of ICU admission, there was no significant difference in neonatal mortality rates. We recommend close monitoring of CRP, WBC, and procalcitonin levels, in addition to symptoms, in pregnant women infected with the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 and diagnosed in the third trimester.
