- The Influenza Vaccine May Protect Pregnant and Postpartum Women against Severe COVID-19(2022) PAGANOTI, Cristiane de Freitas; RODRIGUES, Agatha Sacramento; FRANCISCO, Rossana Pulcineli Vieira; COSTA, Rafaela Alkmin daThe SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has imposed a huge challenge on the antenatal care of pregnant women worldwide, with the maternal mortality rate being raised to alarming levels. While COVID-19 vaccines were developed, some studies highlighted a possible relationship between influenza vaccination and lower odds of COVID-19 infection. As obstetric patients belong to a high-risk group for respiratory diseases, this study evaluated whether influenza vaccination reduces the severity of COVID-19 infection and mortality among pregnant and postpartum women. We conducted a retrospective cohort study on 3370 pregnant and postpartum women from the Brazilian national database, where they were grouped according to their influenza vaccination status before the onset of COVID-19 symptoms. The intensive care unit admission and intubation rates were significantly higher among subjects in the unvaccinated group (p = 0.002 and p < 0.001, respectively). The odds of mortality risk among those who received the vaccine was 0.33, with a 95% confidence interval of 0.23-0.47. The numbers of patients who needed to be vaccinated to avoid a case of intensive care unit admission, intubation, or death due to COVID-19 were 11, 15, and 11, respectively. Influenza vaccines could confer protection against severe COVID-19 infection in pregnant and postpartum women.
- COVID-19 Vaccines Confer Protection in Hospitalized Pregnant and Postpartum Women with Severe COVID-19: A Retrospective Cohort Study(2022) PAGANOTI, Cristiane de Freitas; COSTA, Rafaela Alkmin da; PAPAGEORGHIOU, Aris T.; COSTA, Fabricio da Silva; QUINTANA, Silvana Maria; GODOI, Luciana Graziela de; MONROY, Nataly Adriana Jimenez; RODRIGUES, Agatha Sacramento; FRANCISCO, Rossana Pulcineli VieiraThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has had deleterious effects among the obstetric population. Pregnant and postpartum women constitute a high-risk group for severe COVID-19. Vaccination reduces the risk of infection, but it is not known whether women who become infected despite vaccination have a milder course of disease than those who had not been vaccinated. This retrospective cohort study evaluated whether vaccination reduces the severity of COVID-19 infection, as measured by severe maternal morbidity and mortality among hospitalized pregnant and postpartum individuals. A total of 2284 pregnant and postpartum women hospitalized with severe COVID-19 were included. Those who did and who did not receive COVID-19 vaccination were compared. The rates of intensive care unit admission, intubation, and mortality were significantly lower among subjects in the vaccinated group (p < 0.001, p < 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively). The numbers of patients who needed to be vaccinated to avoid one case of intensive care unit admission, intubation, or death due to COVID-19 were 7, 7, and 9, respectively. The COVID-19 vaccine offers protective effects against intensive care unit admission, intubation, and death in hospitalized pregnant and postpartum women with severe SARS-CoV-2-induced SARS.
- The Effect of Being Pregnant during Respiratory Pandemics: A Comparison between 2009/10 Flu and 2020/21 COVID-19 Pandemic in Brazil(2022) ZANON, Ana Beatrice Bonganha; ROSA JUNIOR, Elias Ribeiro; MONROY, Nataly Adriana Jimenez; GODOI, Luciana Graziela de; MATTOS, Bruna Rodrigues de; PAGANOTI, Cristiane de Freitas; FRANCISCO, Rossana Pulcineli Vieira; RODRIGUES, Agatha Sacramento; COSTA, Rafaela Alkmin daPregnant women undergo physiological changes that make them a challenging group of patients during pandemic respiratory diseases, as previously found during H1N1 2009 pandemic and recently ratified in COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis on 5888 hospitalized women for H1N1 flu pandemic (2190 pregnant and 3698 non-pregnant) and 64,515 hospitalized women for COVID-19 pandemic (5151 pregnant and 59,364 non-pregnant), from the Brazilian national database, to compare demographic profile, clinical aspects, and mortality in childbearing aged women during both pandemics. Additionally, the effect of being pregnant was compared between both pandemics. In both pandemics, pregnant women were younger than non-pregnant women. Overall, pregnant women had lower frequencies of comorbidities and were less symptomatic. Among hospitalized women, pregnant women presented lower mortality rates than non-pregnant women (9.7% vs. 12.6%, p = 0.002 in the H1N1 pandemic and 9.7% vs. 17.4%, p < 0.001 in the COVID-19 pandemic) and this difference was statistically more pronounced in the COVID-19 pandemic, even after balancing pregnant and non-pregnant groups regarding age and chronic diseases.
- Impact of SARS-CoV-2 on pregnancy and neonatal outcomes: An open prospective study of pregnant women in Brazil(2022) GOMEZ, Ursula Trovato; FRANCISCO, Rossana Pulcineli Vieira; BAPTISTA, Fernanda Spadotto; GIBELLI, Maria Augusta B. C.; IBIDI, Silvia Maria; CARVALHO, Werther Brunow de; PAGANOTI, Cristiane de Freitas; SABINO, Ester Cerdeira; SILVA, Lea Campos de Oliveira da; JAENISCH, Thomas; MAYAUD, Philippe; BRIZOT, Maria de LourdesObjectives: To determine the incidence and risk of adverse obstetric and neonatal outcomes according to SARSCoV-2 infection severity in pregnant women. Method: Open prospective study of pregnant women tested for SARS-CoV-2 by serological and molecular assays during pregnancy or delivery in two hospitals in Sao Paulo, Brazil from April 12, 2020, to February 28, 2021. Five groups were considered for analysis: C0, negative COVID-19 results and no COVID-19 symptoms; C1, positive COVID-19 results, and no symptoms; C2, positive COVID-19 results with mild symptoms; C3, positive COVID-19 results with moderate symptoms; and C4, positive COVID-19 results with severe symptoms. The association between obstetric and neonatal outcomes and COVID-19 severity was determined using multivariate analysis. Results: 734 eligible pregnant women were enrolled as follows: C0 (n = 357), C1 (n = 127), C2 (n = 174), C3 (n = 37), and C4 (n = 39). The following pregnancy and neonatal outcomes were associated with severe COVID19: oligohydramnios (adjusted Odds Ratio [aOR] = 6.18; 95% CI 1.87-20.39), fetal distress (aOR = 4.01; 95% Confidence Interval [CI] 1.84-8.75), preterm birth (aOR = 5.51; 95% CI 1.47-20.61), longer hospital stay (aOR = 1.66; 95% CI 1.36-2.02), and admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (aOR = 19.36; 95% CI, 5.8663.99). All maternal (n = 6, 15.4%, p < 0.001) and neonatal (n = 5, 12.5%, p < 0.001) deaths and most fetal deaths (n = 4, 9.8%, p < 0.001) occurred in C4 group. Moderate COVID-19 was associated with oligohydramnios (aOR = 6.23; 95% CI 1.93-20.13) , preterm birth (aOR = 3.60; 95% CI 1.45-9.27). Mild COVID-19 was asso-ciated with oligohydramnios (aOR = 3.77; 95% CI 1.56-9.07). Conclusion: Adverse pregnancy and neonatal outcomes were associated with maternal symptomatic COVID-19 sta-tus , risk increased with disease severity.
