Brief Summary  

With the COVID-19 pandemic at hand and with more pregnant women being infected with the SARS CoV2 virus, the potential of vertical transmission is still debatable.  We propose to conduct a study to analyse the pathological changes in the placenta as a result of infection during pregnancy in comparison to Covid Negative mothers. We also aim to develop a profile of changes in the placenta when affected by the disease. We will be conducting a retrospective study and collecting data from the COVID positive mothers that have delivered at our institute from October 2020. All cases of SARS CoV2 infection will be analysed over the period of one year and cases satisfying the selection criteria will have their pathological findings compared with findings in normal placentas. We have estimated a sample size of 59 in a group using data from a previous study on the prevalence of chorangiosis in COVID positive placentas. At the end of the study, we hope to ascertain the changes in the placenta due to COVID 19 infection which in turn could help in the obstetric management of these patients.
