Abstract

Introduction

The mutated strain of the novel coronavirus has spread in Ilam. In this case report, we have described the recovery of a pregnant woman infected with the mutated coronavirus, admitted to the Shahid Mostafa Khomeini Hospital of Ilam.

Case Presentation

A 34-year-old pregnant woman was initially admitted to the coronavirus ward and then intubated due to hypoxia. She was transferred to the obstetrics and gynecology ward for delivery and then returned to the coronavirus ward. After three days, she was extubated and finally discharged.

Conclusion

With a quick diagnosis of coronavirus, the chances of survival and recovery can be significantly increased among those affected. All people who present with flu-like symptoms during the coronavirus epidemic, if it arises in the future, should be considered to be infected with the mutated coronavirus and timely receive treatments and supportive measures. Furthermore, they and their family members should be screened with the tests able to detect the mutated strain of the coronavirus.
