THE SARS-COV-2 VIRUS INFECTION RATE OF NEWBORNS AT CU CHI COVID-19 TREATMENT HOSPITAL
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: The rate of newborns infected with Sars-Cov-2 virus and related factors at Cu Chi COVID-19 treatment hospital. Methods: A descriptive study of 54 cases of pregnant women infected with Sars-Cov-2 who gave birth at Cu Chi COVID-19 treatment hospital from January 1, 2022 to June 6, 2022. Results: The rate of children who were positive for Sars-CoV-2 virus was: 14.8%. In which, after 1 day postpartum 5.6% After 2 days is 5.6%; After 7 days is 3.7%. Several factors are associated with the rate of infants infected with COVID-19 in which male children are 13.1 times more likely to be infected than female children (95% CI: 1.5 – 116.2). ). Mothers who do not ensure epidemic prevention, such as not wearing masks or protective gear, increase the risk of virus infection in children by 7.6 times. Children who do not use a droplet shield have a 14.5 times increased risk of contracting the virus. Mothers or family members who do not regularly wash their hands with 70-degree alcohol or soap increase the risk of infection by 12.7 times. The difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). Conclusion: Research results show that adherence to epidemic prevention measures significantly reduces the risk of children being infected with Sar-Cov-2 virus.
