Association of Area Deprivation Index with perinatal and COVID-19 outcomes during the early pandemic: a secondary analysis of a prospective cohort study
Patients in the highest ADI group, therefore living in the most deprived neighborhoods, were more likely to experience extremely preterm birth, contract SARS-CoV-2 infection, and become hospitalized due to COVID-19. The interplay of social determinants of health and perinatal outcomes must be better studied to target interventions to modifiable risk factors.
