Abstract

Toplumda her bireyi derinden etkileyen COVID-19 pandemisi hiç kuşkusuz gebeleride etkilemektedir. Pandemi sürecinde anne adaylarının antenatal izlemleri kimi zaman ertelenmiştir ancak doğum eylemi için bu durum mümkün değildir. Bu nedenle doğum eyleminde gebenin, yenidoğanın ve sağlık personellerinin virüsten korunması önem kazanmıştır. Doğum eyleminde gebeyi, yenidoğanı ve sağlık personellerini korumak için yapılması gereken temel uygulamalarr; risk durumuna göre triyajın sağlanması, doğuma gelen gebeye test yapılması, gebenin mümkünse tek kişilik odalarda takibi, COVID-19 tanılı/şüpheli gebenin izolasyonu, gebenin risk durumuna uygun kişisel koruyucu ekipmanın hem gebe hemde sağlık personeli tarafından kullanılması, doğum eyleminde indüksiyon yöntemlerinin kulanılması, doğum eylemine uygun şartların sağlanabilmesi durumunda bir refakatçinin katılmasıdır. Ayrıca ebe ve diğer sağlık personellerinin pandemi konusunda eğitilmesi, gereksiz obstetrik müdahalelerden kaçınılması, travayda ve doğum sırasında odada bulunacak ebe ve sağlık personeli sayısı mininumda tutulması önerilmektedir. Doğum sonrası annenin COVID-19 tanısı yoksa ya da enfekte değilse yenidoğanla beraber kalabilmesi ve kişisel koruyucu önlemler alarak bebeğini emzirmesi önerilmektedir. Bu derlemede pandemi döneminde travayda gebenin, yenidoğanın ve sağlık personelinin korunmasına yönelik alınacak önlemler literatür bilgisi kapsamında derlenmiştir.
