Purpose: To study clinical and laboratory manifestations of measles in pregnant women, prognosis and outcomes of the disease in Kazakhstan (January 2023 - February 2024). Methods: 334 medical records of women (20-43 years old) with confirmed diagnosis of measles (ELISA) were analyzed. General, biochemical blood tests and inflammatory markers were investigated. Results: - 20% of pregnant women were treated as inpatients and the rest as outpatients. - A spike in hospitalizations was recorded during winter months. - Low immunization: 48% of pregnant were unvaccinated and 52% had unknown vaccination status. - Complications included marked intoxication, bacterial infections and perinatal disorders (miscarriages, premature births, fetal deaths). Conclusions: Low vaccination rates and increased morbidity increase the risk of severe measles in pregnant women. Prepregnancy vaccination remains the only effective prevention method for mother and child.
