Brief Summary

At the end of 2019, a new coronavirus named COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2), one of the lower respiratory tract samples was detected in China. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared it a global epidemic on March 11, 2020, due to the emergence of COVID-19 cases in 113 countries other than China, where the first epidemic occurred, and the spread and severity of the virus. Pregnancy increases susceptibility to respiratory complications of viral diseases. This study aimed to retrospectively evaluate the demographic data of COVID-19 patients undergoing cesarean section, our anesthesia practices, complications, and condition of neonates, and to summarize up-to-date information on COVID-19 in obstetric anesthesia.
