ORGANIZATIONS IN THE MATERNITY DEPARTMENT AND CARE IN COVID ZONES, Svetlana Radeva, Emil Kovachev, Zhivko Zhekov

Abstract: According to the regulatory provision, birth care is carried out in inpatient medical
structures by qualified medical specialists. A good organization is required to provide highquality obstetric care in various conditions (emergency or planned admission), which lead to
the birth of a healthy and pregnant newborn.
Pregnant women are extremely susceptible to viral respiratory infections, including Covid19. This is due to the physiological and immunological changes that occur in the body during
pregnancy. An important role is played by women's consultations to prepare a pregnant woman
for the process of childbirth, to inform about all the risks associated with pregnancy and
childbirth, to inform and conduct prevention of behavior for the purpose of prevention, as well
as in case of an established Covid disease, about non-proliferation and protection from
complications.
Keywords: pregnancy, childbirth, Covid 19, obstetric care.
