| Abstract | Background: The pandemic of COVID-19 affected seriously the health of pregnant women. Pregnant women and their fetuses are considered high-risk populations. Spirituality may enhance the adaptability to illnesses. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the relationship between spiritual health and anxiety caused by COVID-19 in pregnant women referred to Chabahar health centers in Iran. Methods: In this descriptive-correlational study, 198 pregnant women participated in 2020 - 2021. Data were collected using Polutzin and Ellison Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWBS) and the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale Questionnaire (CDAS2). Results: The analysis finds that the mean anxiety score in pregnant women was severe (mean = 32.05; SD = 9.59). Spearman correlation test did not show a linear relationship between spiritual health and COVID-19 anxiety (P > 0.05). Conclusions: There is probably no link between spirituality and severe anxiety caused by COVID-19. Therefore, it is appropriate to find out other influential factors in cases of severe stress in acute crises. | en |
