ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
We aimed to determine whether severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP).METHODS:
A multicenter retrospective cohort study of all pregnant patients who had SARS-CoV-2 testing and delivered in a large health system between March 2020 and March 2021. Cases were stratified into two groups patients who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 during pregnancy vs. patients who tested negative. The primary outcome of HDP, defined as a composite of gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet count syndrome (HELLP Syndrome), and eclampsia by standard criteria, was compared between the two groups. Statistical analysis included multivariable logistic regression to adjust for potential confounders such as maternal demographics and comorbidities. Patient ZIP codes were linked to neighborhood-level data from the US Census Bureau's American Community Survey.RESULTS:
Of the 22,438 patients included, 1,653 (7.4%) tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Baseline demographics such as age, body mass index, race, ethnicity, insurance type, neighborhood-built environmental and socioeconomic status, nulliparity, and pregestational diabetes differed significantly between the two groups. SARS-CoV- 2 infection in pregnancy was not associated with an increased risk of HDP compared to those without infection (14.9 vs. 14.8%; aOR 1.06 95% CI 0.90-1.24).CONCLUSIONS:
In this large cohort that included a universally-tested population with several socioeconomic indicators, SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnancy was not associated with an increased risk of HDP.Palavras-chave
