Abstract

Aim. To evaluate BMI in pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2-associated pneumonia and its influence on the severity of the course of viral pneumonia.

Materials and Methods. Seventy pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2-associated pneumonia underwent general clinical and laboratory evaluations. SARS-CoV-2 infection was confirmed using PCR diagnostic testing, and imaging studies, including chest radiography in two views or computed tomography, were performed.

Results. Analysis of BMI in pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2-associated pneumonia revealed that 11 patients (15.7%) were classified as overweight (BMI 25 to 30). Obesity was identified in 9 patients (12.9%), including 6 cases (8.6%) with first-degree obesity (BMI 30 to 35) and 3 cases (4.3%) with second-degree obesity (BMI 35 to 40). A body weight deficit (BMI < 18.5) was observed in 9 patients (12.9%).

Conclusion. In the study group, BMI-related pathology was prevalent, with half of the pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2-associated pneumonia presenting as either overweight, obese, or underweight. BMI correlated with the clinical forms of SARS-CoV-2-associated pneumonia. The frequency of BMI-associated pathology increased fourfold in complicated forms of SARS-CoV-2-associated pneumonia compared to moderately severe forms.
