Abstract

Influenza is the acute viral infection of respiratory system which is seen commonly and usually self-limiting. In some specific cases such as pregnancy, the complications of the disease tend to be seen more common compared to the general population. During influenza season, the admission to the hospital, hospitalization requirement and intensive care need due to acute respiratory distress in pregnant women because of influenza infection is significantly higher than the women who are not pregnant. Seasonally, the first cases with influenza infection are reported in October, with an increase in the reports during January and February, and the cases are reported until May. During the period between October and May, known as the influenza season, inactive influenza vaccination is recommended for pregnant women. Inactive influenza vaccination can be done at any period of pregnancy. Although live attenuated influenza vaccines can be used during postpartum period, it should not be used during pregnancy. The diagnosis of influenza infection is usually established clinically. Empiric treatment is recommended for pregnant women in case of clinical suspicion, without waiting for the results of diagnostic tests particularly in pandemic conditions. The pregnant women with hospitalization indication, who are suspected or confirmed for influenza infection, should be hospitalized and appropriate antiretroviral treatment should be initiated as soon as possible without waiting for the results of diagnostic tests. During pregnancy, the use of neuroaminidase inhibitor antiviral medications is indicated for the treatment and prophylaxis after influenza exposure for patients who have suspected or confirmed influenza infection. Oseltamivir is an outstanding neuroaminidase inhibitor to use in the treatment and prophylaxis of influenza infection during pregnancy as the resistance rate of influenza strains is low, its systemic absorption is well and clinical experience regarding this medication is high

Özet

inşuenza virüs enfeksiyonu sık görülen ve genellikle kendini sınırlayan solunum sisteminin akut viral enfeksiyonudur. Gebelik gibi bazı özel durumlarda genel topluma oranla hastalığın komplikasyonları daha sık görülme eğilimindedir. ınşuenza sezonu boyunca gebe kadınlarda inşuenza enfeksiyonu nedeniyle hastaneye başvuru sayısı, hastaneye yatış ihtiyacı ve akut respiratuvar distres nedenli yoğun bakım ihtiyacı gebe olmayan kadınlara oranla anlamlı oranda yüksektir. ınşuenza enfeksiyonunda mevsimsel olarak ilk olgular genelde ekim ayı gibi bildirilmeye başlanmakta, ocak-şubat aylarında olgu sayılarında ciddi artış olmakta ve mayıs ayına kadar olgular bildirilmeye devam etmektedir. ınşuenza sezonu olarak bilinen ekim-mayıs ayları arasında gebe olan kadınların inaktive inşuenza aşısı ile aşılanmaları önerilmektedir. ınaktive inşuenza aşısı gebeliğin herhangi bir zamanında uygulanabilir. Canlı, atenüe inşuenza aşıları postpartum dönemde kullanılabilse de gebelik döneminde kullanılmamalıdır. ınşuenza enfeksiyonu tanısı daha çok klinik olarak konur. Özellikle pandemi durumlarında tanısal testlerin sonucu beklenmeden klinik şüphe durumunda gebelere ampirik tedavi önerilmektedir. ınşuenza enfeksiyonu şüphesi olan veya inşuenza enfeksiyonu olduğu doğrulanmış, hastaneye yatış endikasyonu olan gebeler hastaneye yatırılmalı ve uygun antiretroviral tedavi, tanısal testlerin sonuçları beklenmeden hızlıca başlanmalıdır. Gebelik sırası nda nöraminidaz inhibitörü antiviral ilaçların kullanımı, şüpheli veya kanıtlanmış inşuenza enfeksiyonu bulunan hastaların tedavisi ve inşuenza maruziyetinden sonra profilaksisi için endikedir. Oseltamivir, inşuenza suşlarında direnç görülme oranının düşük olması, sistemik emiliminin iyi olması ve bu ilaçla ilgili klinik deneyimin yüksek olması nedeniyle gebelikte inşuenza enfeksiyonu tedavisi ve profilaksisinde kullanılması önerilen seçkin bir nöraminidaz inhibitörüdür.
