Since the beginning of the pandemic, in order to respond to the emerging needs for reorganization of the care system, it has become necessary to review the provision of care for pregnant women, new mothers, fathers and babies. Under the initial epidemiological pressure, especially in the most affected areas of the country, the regional health services have defined care pathways based on the organizational and logistical availability. Furthermore, in the initial phase of the COVID-19 epidemic, between January and March 2020, the scientific evidence supporting these decisions was still scarce and not always consistent. Currently the available literature indicates more consistently which clinical-care practices are appropriate to care for women with suspected or confirmed infection with SARS-CoV-2 virus and babies during pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding.
