Study description

A retrospective multi-database dynamic cohort study, conducted during the years 2018 to 2020, including a period of SARS-CoV-2 circulation in Europe. The study population includes women of reproductive age (12-55 years), pregnant women and their children. The study will include data from 9 electronic health care registries in 8 European countries. Descriptive analysis will focus on 3-monthly prevalence rates of medication use, incidence rates of COVID-19 outcomes and prevalence of pregnancy outcomes. The primary objectives are: 1) To estimate the prevalence of medicines used, by trimester of pregnancy, and compare this among pregnant women with COVID-19, pregnant women without COVID-19, and non-pregnant women with COVID-19. 2)To describe severity and clinical outcomes of COVID-19 disease in pregnant women with COVID-19, according to treatments received during pregnancy, and compare these data with those of nonpregnant women of reproductive age with COVID-19. 3) To assess and compare the rates of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes in pregnant women with and without COVID-19, using different medicines.
