Fetal growth and hemodynamics during SARS-CoV-2 infection: a short literature review

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a virus that, having crossed species, has caused human disease from 2019 - COrona Virus Disease (COVID-19). Pregnant women are potentially at high risk of contracting SARS-CoV-2 infection when compared to non-pregnant matched controls. Pregnancy also complicated with higher developing severe SARS-CoV-2, including diseases, admission the intensive care unit and mortality, even after adjusting for confounding factors. Moreover, data on effect fetal outcome preterm delivery perinatal morbidity still conflicting, vertical transmission (i.e., mother fetus or newborn) considered low but there evidence that significant proportion placentas where occurred during pregnancy show histopathological findings suggesting placental hypoperfusion inflammation. In this review we will present available effects growth maternal hemodynamics
