Sindhu Sivanandan et al. Indian Pediatr. .

Abstract

The guidelines for diagnosing and managing perinatal SARS-CoV-2 infection for the Indian context were last updated in May 2020. Newer evidence, the evolution of the pandemic, and its significant impact on mother-infant dyads led us to review and revise the guideline. This article summarizes the salient changes inthe perinatal-neonatal management of COVID-19.
