The reporter learned on the 10th that with the joint efforts of the Shanghai and Zhejiang medical teams, the prematurely born pregnant woman was transferred to the East Hospital of the Sixth People's Hospital of Shanghai (the East Hospital of the Sixth Hospital) and gave birth to the baby smoothly.
At about 10:40 p.m. on the 9th, Peng Junyan, the equipment department of Huashan Hospital, who was on duty at the command center of Shanghai Lingang Fangcang shelter hospital, and two doctors, Han Dong and Bao Liwen, who were responsible for the liaison work of the Zhejiang team, received Zhejiang Medical Services respectively. Team call.
The doctors and nurses in the cabin immediately activated the emergency response and quickly mobilized the corresponding forces to participate in the rescue.
Zhuo Bei, an obstetrician and gynecologist at the Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University School of Medicine, Wang Juanjuan, an ICU doctor at Ningbo First Hospital, and Lin Ping, a nurse at Ninghai Maternal and Child Health Hospital, checked and judged the condition of the pregnant woman: the cervix has been opened to the second finger.
However, the makeshift hospital does not have the conditions for neonatal delivery at the moment, and urgent coordination is required.
With the gentleness and calmness unique to obstetricians and gynecologists, Dr. Zhuo Bei had a "chat" with the pregnant woman to soothe her nervous and anxious emotions.
Under the coordination of Ma Xin, vice president of Huashan Hospital, on the one hand, a transfer ambulance dispatched by 120 was running towards the square cabin, and on the other hand, doctors from Zhonghuashan Hospital in Fangcang shelter hospital sent emergency supplies such as vascular forceps and sterilized scissors into the cabin.

Doctors Zhuo Bei, Wang Juanjuan and nurse Lin Ping of the Zhejiang Medical Team took the pregnant woman to the designated hospital, the East Hospital of Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital.
About 15 minutes later, the ambulance arrived at the East Hospital of the Sixth Hospital.

Under the epidemic, what should I do if I get infected with the new crown virus?
How will it affect the baby?
Can I give birth successfully with the new crown?
...These issues are of great concern to pregnant mothers.
Huang Hefeng, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and an expert at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital affiliated to Fudan University, said that mother-to-child transmission, also known as vertical transmission, refers to the transmission of pathogens in pregnant women to their offspring through the placenta, birth canal or breastfeeding.
Current international research shows that the probability of intrauterine transmission of the new coronavirus is extremely low.
The expert said that after analyzing the cases in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, his team found that no new coronavirus was detected in their placenta, amniotic fluid and cord blood.
Therefore, there is insufficient evidence that the new coronavirus can transmit infection through the placenta.
For the early pregnancy patients infected with the new coronavirus, Huang Hefeng believes that a one-size-fits-all "pregnancy termination" plan should not be blindly adopted.
Some studies have reported that pregnant women who are positive for the new coronavirus have an increased risk of infection and thrombosis during pregnancy, so obstetric examinations can be strengthened during pregnancy.
Huang Hefeng emphasized that for patients with early pregnancy, if bleeding or abdominal pain occurs during the isolation period, they still need to seek medical treatment in time, especially for patients who do not have a clear gestational sac location by B-ultrasound, they should be alert to the occurrence of ectopic pregnancy.
Can I still give birth after being infected with the new coronavirus?
Huang Hefeng pointed out that for mothers infected with the new coronavirus, as long as they take precautions, vaginal delivery is relatively safe.
If there are no other indications, blind use of cesarean section is not recommended to reduce vertical transmission from mother to child.
Breast milk is the best source of nutrition for most babies.
Huang Hefeng pointed out that current research has confirmed that when a mother is suspected or suffering from the new coronavirus, no new coronavirus has been found in her breast milk.
However, she bluntly said that the virus may spread to babies when mothers talk, cough or sneeze.
She recommends avoiding talking or coughing during breastfeeding; changing masks immediately if coughing or sneezing; and recommending that mothers express their milk and let a healthy person use a cup or spoon to feed their newborns.
