China News Service, July 15th. According to the European Union, citing a comprehensive report from the European Union, a study published in the "Nature-Communications" scientific journal (Nature Communications) recently pointed out that a French doctor reported that a fetus was diagnosed with neonatal pneumonia in the maternal uterus. Cases. Doctors believe that this may be the first case of fetal infection in the womb. Thankfully, the baby boy recovered well after birth.
According to reports, the 23-year-old mother was infected with the new coronavirus late in pregnancy and developed symptoms of fever and intense cough. She was admitted to the hospital on March 24 and confirmed a positive test result. Three days after admission, the medical staff found that the fetus had "painful signs" and immediately had a caesarean section.
The hospital draws blood and other body fluids from the baby's lungs, confirms that the baby is infected with new coronary pneumonia, and excludes other viral and other bacterial infections. After further examination, the doctor showed that the virus spread from the mother's blood to the placenta, which in turn infected the baby.
Daniele De Luca, director of pediatric and neonatal intensive care medicine at the Antoine Be ́cle ̀re hospital in Paris, said that it was impossible to prove that the fetus was infected in the mother's body, and there are already some suspected cases , But there are still uncertainties. Because no one has the opportunity to perform a full examination to confirm the pathology of the placenta.
The baby boy initially appeared healthy, but three days after birth, he became irritable, in poor condition, and suffered from cramps. When he was born, there was no clinical guidance on how to treat the diagnosed baby. The doctor had considered whether to use Ridesivir, but the baby boy gradually recovered without help, so no specific drugs were obtained. Recent scans have shown that his body has almost returned to normal.
Dr. De Luca believes that pregnant women do not need to worry too much. In most cases, these symptoms will not cause harm to the baby. (Huang Jing)
