ABSTRACT
Introduction. Nursing management aimed to prevent viral infection in order to promote care plans that reduce the SARS-CoV-2 infection as much as possible. Evidence acquisition. There were different studies focusing on small case series on Covid-19 pregnant women and on logistic management in order to reduce the risk of contagion. Evidence synthesis. A review of the primary and the secondary literature was carried out in the Clinical Key and the PubMed databases. The bibliographic research was focused on the critical reading of the studies from 1 February 2020 to 30 June 2020. A total of eight articles analyzed special measures necessary to prevent Covid-19 in the pregnant women by implementing algorithms to be shared in a multidisciplinary context, also on challenges in the nursing care and in proposals for future studies. Conclusions. Since there were few data available on the Covid-19 positive pregnant women, further developments of studies and more appropriate protocols were needed on this particular topic. © 2021, EDRA S.p.A.
