High-Risk Pregnancy Influence Anxiety Level during the Covid-19 Pandemic

Ravi Pratap Singh Yadav

Our goal was to examine how pregnant women with and without high-risk indications experienced differing levels of anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic in a tertiary care facility in Turkey's capital that also treated COVID19 patients. Surveys were used to create a case-control and cross-sectional research. Outpatient pregnant women with high-risk pregnancies were given the validated Turkish versions of the Spielberger State Trait Anxiety Scale and Beck Anxiety Inventory, while pregnant women without high-risk pregnancies served as the control group. 446 women in total were hired. In terms of Trait-State Anxiety scores with COVID-19 pandemic, there was a statistically significant difference between those with high-risk pregnancies and those without it. We discovered that high-risk pregnant women experienced more anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic than pregnancy without any risk elements. In terms of anxiety scores, there was a statistically significant difference between education levels among high-risk pregnant women, with high school graduates having the highest Beck Anxiety scores. The degree of trait anxiety was highest in high-risk pregnancies with threatened preterm labour and preterm membrane ruptures, while it was lowest in people with thrombophilia. In contrast to individuals with thrombophilia, those with maternal systemic illness had the highest state anxiety level and Beck anxiety score. Those who were hospitalised at least once during the pandemic had statistically higher Trait Anxiety, State Anxiety, and Beck Anxiety scores. During the COVID-19, high-risk expectant women need regular anxiety and depression screenings as well as psychological assistance pandemic. Patients with high-risk pregnancies frequently have coexisting disorders, which increases their risk of infection as well as their anxiety levels because to the stress that COVID-19 causes.
