COVID-19 İLE EŞ ZAMANLI ENFEKTİF ENDOKARDİT OLAN BİR GEBE HASTA: OLGU SUNUMU

COVID-19 pandemisi halen ciddi bir halk sağlığı problemi olarak etkisini sürdürmektedir. Bu salgının gebeliğin immunsupresif durumu nedeni ile gebelerde ve fetüs üzerindeki etkileri hakkında endişeler bulunmaktadır. Gebe COVID-19 hastalarının yönetimi gebe olmayan hastalar gibi yapılmalıdır; ancak düşük, erken doğum, preeklampsi gibi komplikasyonlarda artış görülebilmektedir. Gebe COVID-19 hastaları enfektif endokardit gibi diğer enfeksiyon hastalıkları ile benzer nonspesifik semptom ve bulgularla başvurabilmektedir. Bu nedenle eşlik edebilecek diğer enfeksiyon hastalıklarının araştırılması, tanısının gecikmeden konulması olabilecek komplikasyonları engelleme açısından önemlidir. Olgumuz ateş, halsizlik, öksürük yakınması ile acil servise başvuran COVID-19 ile enfektif endokardit tanısı konan gebe bir hasta olup teşhisi, yönetimi ve sonucu bildirilmiştir.

A Pregnant Covid-19 Patient with Concomitant Infective Endocarditis: Case Report

The COVID-19 pandemic still continues to be a serious public health problem. There are concerns about the effects of this epidemic on pregnant women and the fetus due to the immunosuppressive state of pregnancy. The management of pregnant COVID-19 patients should be like non-pregnant patients; however, complications such as miscarriage, premature birth, and preeclampsia may increase. Pregnant COVID-19 patients may present with nonspecific symptoms and findings similar to other infectious diseases such as infective endocarditis. For this reason, it is important to investigate other accompanying infectious diseases and to make the diagnosis without delay in order to prevent possible complications. Our case is a pregnant patient who was admitted to the emergency department with the complaints of fever, weakness, cough and diagnosed with COVID-19 and infective endocarditis, and herein the diagnosis, management and outcome have been discussed.
