Abstract

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a highly infectious and pathogenic disease caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) which is causing a worldwide pandemic. The severity of COVID-19 consists of asymptomatic, mild, moderate, severe, and critical. COVID-19 can attack anyone, including pregnant women. This study aims to determine the characteristics of pregnant women with confirmed COVID-19 based on maternal age, parity, gestational age, comorbid factors, clinical symptoms, and severity at Dustira Hospital and Cibabat Hospital, which are the referral hospitals in Cimahi. This study used a descriptive method which was taken by total sampling using the secondary data in medical records of pregnant women who have confirmed COVID-19 at Dustira Hospital and Cibabat Hospital. The result from this study, 129 pregnant women were confirmed to have COVID-19 at Dustira Hospital and Cibabat Hospital. The characteristics based on maternal age, most of them were 20–35 years (79.07%), multiparous (62.02%), entering the third trimester (82.95%), the most common comorbid factor was hypertension (14.73%), the most common clinical symptom was cough (86.8%) and based on severity, most of them have moderate symptom (73.64%). There are differences about the severity with previous studies which can be caused by hospital differences. There is an incomplete pathogenesis and pathophysiology of COVID-19 related to pregnancy, so the further research on COVID-19 in pregnancy is needed.
