This study aimed to compare the pregnancy outcomes during pandemic and non-pandemic COVID-19 in women referred to health service centres in Yazd. This descriptive study was performed based on the information obtained from all pregnant women referred to comprehensive health service centres in Yazd city using census method, between March 21 2019 and December 21 2019 and between March 20 2020 and December 20 2020. The pregnant mothers' information, including their pregnancy outcome, and maternal and neonatal complications, was extracted from the electronic health information system of Yazd city. The obtained data were analysed by Chi-Square test. No significant difference was found between non-pandemic and pandemic COVID-19 situations in most variables. As well, maternal and neonatal death were equally observed in both non-pandemic and pandemic COVID-19 situations. Wanted pregnancy, post term birth, multiple pregnancy and caesarean section rates were found to be higher in pandemic than non-pandemic COVID-19 ( p &lt;.001). Reported abortion, screening for foetal anueploidy in the first and second trimesters as well as the number of episodes of prenatal care during COVID-19 pandemic were significantly lower than those of non-pandemic period ( p &lt;.001). The outcome of pregnancy during the pandemic was not significantly different from that of non-pandemic situation.Impact StatementWhat is already known on this subject?
