LOPEZ TAGLE, Daimilé et al. Obstetric patient care in the context of COVID-19 pandemic. Rev. cuban. med. mil. [online]. 2023, vol.52, n.4  Epub Dec 01, 2023. ISSN 1561-3046.

The infection caused by SARS-CoV-2 had a negative impact on the clinical evolution of a significant number of pregnant and puerperal women worldwide. The aim of this work is to present the main results of the organization of the obstetric patient care process in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. It is based on the organization and fundamental elements followed with the patients who were admitted, for conditions related to abortion, pregnancy or puerperium, with suspicion of COVID-19 or with positive RT-PCR for SARS-CoV-2, in the year 2020, and those positive to SARS-CoV-2 in 2021, from Havana, Mayabeque and Artemisa provinces, who were attended at the Central Military Hospital "Dr. Luis Díaz Soto". The total number of cases admitted, confirmed patients, admissions to the obstetric intensive care unit, obstetric intensive surveillance service, and clinical evolution were taken into account. With the organization of medical care for obstetric patients with COVID-19, compliance with established protocols and multidisciplinary integration in the follow-up of cases was achieved, which contributed to the favorable evolution of most patients.
