In response to the fact that a pregnant woman infected with the new corona virus could not be hospitalized in Chiba prefecture and gave birth at home and her baby died, an organization made up of obstetricians and gynecologists in Tokyo told Governor Koike that the pregnant woman was infected. We requested that the number of pregnant women be ascertained and that the rules for emergency transportation of pregnant women already in operation in Tokyo be thoroughly known.
Five people, including Chairman Masaoki Yamada of the Tokyo Obstetricians and Gynecologists Association, requested.
Among them, it is required to grasp all infected pregnant women and to secure a pulse oximeter so that the oxygen level in the blood can be confirmed.
Furthermore, when the Tokyo Metropolitan Government or the public health center understands that there is a "Tokyo Perinatal Transport Rule" that predetermines the medical institution that always accepts pregnant women in Tokyo, and there is a need for emergency transport to infected pregnant women, We also ask you to consider applying the rules.
In response, the city has announced that it has informed medical institutions and health centers to enter information on whether or not they are pregnant in the system "HER-SYS" that aggregates information on infected persons.
