About this study

Official title: COVID-19 PCR Test Results in Asymptomatic Pregnants Admitted for Birth and Other Interventions in Our Clinic

In order to prevent contamination from the pregnant women hospitalized in this clinic, the RT-PCR test is performed from the oropharyngeal and nasal swab sample taken before hospitalization. In addition, the same test is done before each operation and before the operation. The aim of the study is to scan these tests retrospectively and to determine the rate of positive COVID-19 cases in asymptomatic pregnant women. The results will determine the importance of the measures to be taken in the pregnant women who undergo intervention.
