Strengths and limitations
One of the strengths of the study is that it shows the outcomes of the
first consecutive COVID-19 positive women managed and delivered under a
standardized clinical protocol(14) in a referral
fetal-maternal hospital in Barcelona, a high-prevalence area of the
infection. In addition, showing reassuring results of vaginal delivery
for both the mother and the offspring may help to define future less
interventionist obstetrical attitudes among infected pregnant women.
Among the limitations we should underline a limited follow-up of the
newborns and a relatively small sample size.
