Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the relationship between COVID-19 and the rates of preterm birth (PTB) in pregnant women, highlighting the need for more comprehensive research due to limitations in prior studies.
- Using a retrospective cohort approach, researchers compared pregnant women diagnosed with COVID-19 to uninfected controls from 14 obstetric centers in Michigan, assessing various forms of prematurity and potential confounding factors.
- Results showed that symptomatic COVID-19 cases had notably higher rates of prematurity (26.5%) and ICU admissions correlated with even higher rates (58.8%), indicating that COVID-19 is a significant risk factor for PTB, particularly for early and medically indicated prematurity.
