Corona virus infection is a pandemic infection leading to high mortality and it can affect pregnant women also. They need a special attention since we need to treat mother and newborn also. Though definitive guidelines have not been established still we need to follow few fundamental principles in the management.The guidelines are likely to be introduced in due course of time.
CARE OF PREGNANT WOMEN DURING COVID 19 PANDEMICkhushboo singh
Pregnant women do not appear more likely to contact the infection than the general population.
Pregnancy itself alters the body’s immune system and response to viral infections in general, which can occasionally be related to more severe symptoms and this will be the same for COVID-19.

These are guidelines for patients and healthcare workers for corona virus in pregnancy.....Measures for prevention...these are guidelines by FOGSI and ACOG
Covid19 and pregnancy: There are case reports of preterm birth in women with COVID-19 but it is unclear whether the preterm birth was always iatrogenic, or whether some were spontaneous.
As per ICMR Guidelines Pregnant women do not appear more likely to contract the infection than the general population. However, pregnancy itself alters the body’s immune system and response to viral infections in general, which can occasionally be related to more severe symptoms and this will be the same for COVID-19. Reported cases of COVID-19 pneumonia in pregnancy are milder and with good recovery.Pregnant women with heart disease are at highest risk (congenital or acquired). In other types of coronavirus infection (SARS, MERS), the risks to the mother appear to increase in particular during the last trimester of pregnancy. There are case reports of preterm birth in women with COVID-19 but it is unclear whether the preterm birth was always iatrogenic, or whether some were spontaneous.The coronavirus epidemic increases the risk of perinatal anxiety and depression, as well as domestic violence. It is critically important that support for women and families is strengthened as far as possible; that women are asked about mental health at every contact. A small study of nine pregnant women in Wuhan, China, with confirmed COVID-19 found no evidence of the virus in their breast milk, cord blood or amniotic fluid. According to WHO, pregnant women
do not appear to be at higher risk of severe disease.
Furthermore, WHO reports that currently there is no known difference between the clinical manifestations of COVID-19 in pregnant and non-pregnant women of reproductive age
ACOG is advising caution based on the impact of other respiratory illnesses (including influenza/ SARS outbreak of 2002–2003), stating that “pregnant women should be considered an at-risk population for COVID-19

School Health Programmes During COVID-19 Aakanksha Dua
school health programmes during covid-19.
this powerpoint aims at how you can conduct school health programmes during covid-19. Also, impacts and transmission of the virus
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus and can infect people of all ages, including pregnant women. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have been monitoring the impact of COVID-19 on pregnant women and their fetuses.
Pregnant women with COVID-19 may experience similar symptoms to non-pregnant individuals, such as fever, cough, and difficulty breathing. However, there is currently no evidence to suggest that pregnant women are at a higher risk of severe illness or death from COVID-19 than the general population.
There is also no evidence to suggest that pregnant women are more likely to transmit the virus to their fetuses, although there is some evidence of vertical transmission from mother to newborn.
The risk of severe illness from COVID-19 for the fetus is thought to be low, and the majority of pregnant women who have tested positive for COVID-19 have had healthy pregnancies and deliveries.
However, pregnant women with COVID-19 are at an increased risk of preterm labor and delivery, which can have implications for the health of the newborn.
It's important for pregnant women to take precautions to avoid infection with COVID-19, such as wearing a mask, practicing social distancing, and washing hands frequently. Pregnant women should also follow the guidance of their healthcare provider and the recommendations of public health authorities.
It's also important to note that the knowledge about COVID-19 and its impact on pregnancy is still evolving, and pregnant women should consult with their health care provider for the most up-to-date guidance.
COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) is an infectious disease caused by the recently found virus known as SARS-CoV-2 (or coronavirus). Before the outbreak originated in Wuhan, China on December 2019, there was no information about this virus. Case Definition (India), Symptoms, Statistics, Preventive Measures, Management
The pandemic has resulted in increased anxiety in the universal populace more so for the pregnant women owing to the new period of uncertainty.
Though the effects of the coronavirus are more or less the same on each one of us; pregnant women have been considered as clinically exposed to the added risk of Covid-19 and hence been included in the moderate risk group as a precautionary measure. Expecting mothers in their third trimester or the 28th week, are required to be extra cautious and follow the social distancing norms strictly. Data from various sources revealed women were predominantly affected during their third trimester of pregnancy. Also, women with prevenient medical conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure ,or hypertension ,or prior major surgeries are at an increased risk of enduring the virus and recoup.

Report Back from SGO 2024: What’s the Latest in Cervical Cancer?bkling
Are you curious about what’s new in cervical cancer research or unsure what the findings mean? Join Dr. Emily Ko, a gynecologic oncologist at Penn Medicine, to learn about the latest updates from the Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) 2024 Annual Meeting on Women’s Cancer. Dr. Ko will discuss what the research presented at the conference means for you and answer your questions about the new developments.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

3. COVID-19
Coronavirus are family of enveloped, single-stranded RNA viruses cause mild
symptoms like common cold.
At the end of 2019. coronavirus was identified in a worker in Wuhan Sea food
market in the Province of China who had pneumonia.
It was observed that strain is virulence and quickly passed from human to
human.
In Jan 2020. WHO designed COVID-19 as a pandemic
It designed this virus as 2019 Novel Corona virus- later on it renamed as
severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2
( SARS-CoV-2): previously it was referred to as 2019-nCoV.
4. COVID-19
2002: Severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV)
2012: Middle East respiratory syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV)
2019: named SARS-CoV 2
2020: in Feb, WHO designed the disease Covid-19 which stands for
Coronavirus disease 2019.
8. COVID-19 in pregnancy
Pregnant women are not more susceptible to consequences of COVID-19.
But if they have co-morbidities like
DM/ HTN/ Asthma /Heart disease /Liver /Kidney disease
/Immunosuppression.
19. Prevention
Pregnant women should follow the same recommendations as non
pregnant persons to avoid exposure to COVID-19.
DO THE FIVE :
Home
Hands
Elbow
Space
Face
20.
21. Clinical Presentation
• The mean incubation period is 5-7 days
• Fever >38 C
• Cough
• GI symptoms: vomiting, diarrhea
• Difficulty in breathing
• Anosmia
• Loss of taste
23. Isolation measures, supportive treatments should be applied following the MOH
corona virus disease 19 guideline.
Any pregnant woman diagnosed with COVID-19 disease will not attend to antenatal
clinic till she is cured.
Routine antenatal clinic appointments can be delayed till patient is cured
COVID-19 is not known to cause fetal congenital anomalies
Serial ultrasounds every 4 weeks for fetal anatomy and fetal wellbeing starting from
24 weeks of gestation is advisable
25. Delivery should occur in an isolated room and the room should be disinfected right after the
patient is discharged to the ward following the infection control measures
Continuous fetal monitoring during labour.
Normal vaginal delivery with delaying rupture of membranes is advised.
Caesarean section is for obstetrical reasons.
Operative vaginal delivery is not contraindicated
Labor, delivery and recovery should be done in the same room.
Caregivers handling a patient with corona virus should change all their clothing’s (if they are
not wearing protective gowns and head cover) and wash hands before handling another
patient( kindly referee to the infection control policies and MOH COVID -19 disease guidelines) .
26. New born babies of covid-19 infected mother should not be allowed to be in contact with their
mother’s till the mother is cured or declared free of the disease (following the current
isolation measures in MOH OCVID-19 disease guidelines )
Isolation of those babies till they are declared clear from the virus or for 14 days
If the new-born is tested positive for covid-19, it should be kept in isolation until it is cured or
test negative.
Transfer a new born from delivery room: a gentle bath with warm water and soap should be
done
Placenta should be kept in a container that will be washed before handling to responsible
department and labelled according to the infections control policies.
No relatives should be allowed into the delivery room
Pregnant patients with suspected covid-19 infection will be dealt with as if they are infected.
28. Mother breast milk is the best nutrition to a new-born.
Direct breast feeding is not advisable (risk of direct infection with close
contact)
Extracted breast milk can be fed to the infant using milk bottles with the
help of another person if possible
PrecautionarymeasuresaretobestrictlyfollowedasperMOHCOVID-19
guidelines and it includes : washing hands and breast – wearing a face mask – using a clean
breast pump – clean the surface of the milk collection container – another person to feed the
baby
If mother isolation is not required and breast pump/ milk extraction is not feasible then the
patient can be allowed to breast feed with taking inconsideration the previous protectionary
measures with the addition of a protective sheet between the mother and the baby.
