Abstract

Ashraful Hoque

Pregnant women with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) show overall similar clinical features as that of non-pregnant adults with COVID-19, except perhaps for higher risk of admission to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and mechanical ventilation. Apart from the established therapeutic options used in COVID-19 like steroid, low molecular weight heparin role of COVID Convalescent Plasma (CCP) has never been evaluated. We present a case of a pregnant woman, treated with CP at the AMZ hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh.
