I. Antenatal care

Question 6: How should the antenatal care service flow be adjusted?
ln order to avoid infections for pregnant women visiting hospitals, medical institutions that provide antenatal care should make timely adjustments to the consultation flow.
(1) All registrations should be made through prior appointment bookings, so as to reduce the waiting time for pregnant women. lf feasible, hospitals should set up special consultation rooms for pregnant women.
(2) Pregnant women must wear masks properly when visiting the medical institutions. Before entering the consultation room, the pregnant women must have their body temperature measured; if the pregnant woman’s body temperature is greater than 37.3℃, she should be sent to the fever clinic. Except in special circumstances, only one pregnant woman is allowed to enter the clinic area.
(3) ln the case of non-emergency treatment, pregnant women who need to be admitted to the hospital should complete the routine blood test and lung CT screening at the outpatient clinic if they have suspected COVlD-19.
