Abstract
Abstract Objective: to identify the factors associated with need for intensive care unit admission of Brazilian pregnant adolescents with COVID-19. Method: population-based non-concurrent cohort study using secondary databases. Brazilian pregnant adolescents who had laboratory confirmation of SARS-CoV-2 by RT-PCR, between March 14, 2020 and April 11, 2021 were included in the study. Statistical analysis using the Poisson multiple regression model, estimating the relative risk and respective 95% confidence intervals, with values of p <0.05 considered significant. Results: in total, 282 pregnant women were included in the study, with median age of 17 years, most with brown skin, in the third trimester of pregnancy, and living in urban or peri-urban areas. The intensive care unit admission rate was 14.5%, associated with living in the Southeast region of Brazil (RR=5.03, 95%CI=1.78-14.24, p=0.002), oxygen saturation below 95% (RR=2.62, 95%CI=1.17-5.87, p=0.019), and having some comorbidity (RR=2.05, 95%CI=1.01-4.16, p=0.047). Conclusion: the intensive care unit admission rate was high among Brazilian pregnant adolescents and was associated with living in the Southeast region of Brazil, having some comorbidity and/or presenting low oxygen saturation.
