Abstract

COVID-19 is a respiratory disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus that, in severe cases, progresses with extremely clinically relevant complications, directly impacting the morbidity and mortality of the population. The disease was first discovered in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. Thus, the studies were published in the years 2020, 2021 and 2022, being the equivalent of 41.67% in the year 2020, 50.00% in the year 2021 and about 8.33% in the year 2022. Therefore, most of the jobs were from Mexico with 33.33%, against 25.00% from Iran, 16.67% in Brazil, 16.67 % in the United States and 8.33% in Italy. In view of the exposed results, it was highlighted that the infection by COVID-19 in pregnant women negatively affected maternal health, being responsible for maternal injuries and/or death. Some epidemiological and clinical risk factors were associated with negative outcomes, as well as barriers to accessing health care.
