Abstract
Pregnant women are at higher risk of severe COVID-19 than the general population (1). Furthermore, COVID-19 increases the preterm and cesarean rates due to maternal and fetal complications (2). Owing to the adverse effects of the COVID-19 on pregnant women, in-person prenatal visits face challenges. Thus, alternative solutions that reduce the number of visits while preserving maternal and fetal care quality should be considered.
