Abstract
Background: SARS-CoV-2 infection has become a global problem with significant infectiousness and mortality, affecting all age groups. One of the groups of greater risk are the pregnant women and their newborns. We present a report the first neonate born to a mother with COVID-19 who was treated at the Hospital de Gineco Obstetricia No. 3, in La Raza National Medical Center.
Clinical case: Male newborn of 34 weeks of gestation, son of a mother diagnosed with COVID-19, “not vigorous,” who required ventilatory support with intermittent positive pressure and mechanical ventilation due to respiratory depression secondary to the sedative and anesthetic type medications that the mother had received. During hospital stay of the child, he presented an adequate evolution and the two tests from nasopharyngeal swab at days 1 and 8 of extra-uterine life were negative for SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Conclusions: The different clinical manifestations of newborns with COVID-19 have been described in other studies, while the vertical transmission in the newborn up to this moment is uncertain.
