OBJECTIVE
We conducted a population-based study to assess whether work as a nurse during pregnancy increases the risk of low birth weight, preterm delivery, and small-for-gestational-age.
METHODS
The study population was selected from The Finnish Prenatal Environment and Health Study of 2568 newborns (response 94%) and included 128 (5.0%) newborns of nurses and 559 newborns of office workers (21.8%) as a reference group.
RESULTS
The risk of low birth weight (adjusted odds ratio = 1.02; 95% confidence interval = 0.32-3.22) and preterm delivery (0.81; 0.32-2.05) did not differ between newborns of nurses and office workers, but the risk of small-for-gestational-age was substantially higher among newborns of nurses (1.99; 1.10-3.59). This corresponds to a population attributable fraction of 2.5%.
CONCLUSIONS
The results indicate that working as a nurse during pregnancy could reduce fetal growth.
目的
我们开展了一项基于人群的研究，以评估孕期从事护士工作是否会增加低出生体重、早产和小于胎龄儿的风险。
方法
研究人群选自芬兰产前环境与健康研究中的2568名新生儿（应答率94%），其中包括128名护士的新生儿（5.0%）和559名办公室工作人员的新生儿作为参照组（21.8%）。
结果
护士的新生儿与办公室工作人员的新生儿在低出生体重风险（校正比值比=1.02；95%置信区间=0.32 - 3.22）和早产风险（0.81；0.32 - 2.05）方面无差异，但护士的新生儿中小于胎龄儿的风险显著更高（1.99；1.10 - 3.59）。这相当于人群归因分数为2.5%。
结论
结果表明孕期从事护士工作可能会影响胎儿生长。
