RESUMEN : El nuevo Coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, es devastador en determinados grupos de pacientes, pero no se ha demostrado aún cómo afecta a las mujeres embarazadas. El propósito de este estudio es identificar el impacto que tiene la infección por SARS-CoV-2 durante el curso del embarazo y las consecuencias que puede acarrear. La metodología del estudio se ha basado en el análisis de una cohorte de embarazadas catalogadas como infectadas o no infectadas mediante test RT-PCR para SARS-CoV-2. La selección de las participantes se realizó en el Hospital Marqués de Valdecilla, en Santander, Norte de España, en el periodo desde el 23 de marzo de 2020 hasta el 14 de octubre del mismo año. Los datos recogidos fueron comparados con los de otra cohorte de embarazadas seleccionada en el mismo hospital en el año 2018. Como resultados, hemos encontrado que la hipertensión gestacional, el desprendimiento prematuro de placenta normo inserta y la ganancia de peso, entre otras variables, podrían aumentar el riesgo de infección por SARS-CoV-2. Como conclusión, creemos que las embarazadas son un grupo de riesgo ante una posible infección por SARS-CoV-2, sobre todo aquellas que presentan adicionalmente hipertensión arterial u obesidad, también creemos que la infección por SARS-CoV-2 podría incrementar las posibilidades de experimentar un abruptio placentae.
ABSTRACT : The new Coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, is devastating for specific groups of patients, but currently there is not enough information about its effects on pregnant women. The purpose of this study is to identify the impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection on the pregnancy course and the consequences that could cause. We studied a cohort of pregnant ladies who were tested for SARS-CoV-2 infection by RT-PCR, and classified as infected or not infected. The recruitment was made in the HUMV hospital, a third level hospital located in Santander, North of Spain. It started on 23rd March 2020 and ended on 14th October 2020. Data from our cohort was compared with another cohort recruited in 2018 at the same hospital. We found out that gestational hypertension, placental abruptio and home exposure to an infected person, among other variables, could be related with high risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection. In conclusion, we consider pregnant women a high-risk group of patients towards a possible SARS-CoV-2 infection, especially those who present conditions such as gestational hypertension or obesity, moreover we think that SARS CoV-2 infection could increase the possibilities of experimenting an abruptio placent
