To study the obstetric complications of women who become pregnant at aged 17 years old or less.
A retrospective study was performed from January to December 2009 at Al-Thawra General Hospital, Sana'a, Yemen. We included all women aged 17 years or less who delivered in the hospital with singleton births after 24 weeks gestational age. The study group comprised 239 patients, and a control group (n=240) was chosen from women aged between 20-24 years. Data were retrieved from the hospital records.
Pregnancy in women 17 years old or less was associated with higher frequency of low birth weight than the control group (21.3% versus 12%, p=0.0091). Anemia was higher in the study group (17.5% versus 7%, p=0.0008). Preterm labor was 11.6% in the study group, and 5.4% in the control group. In the study group, 7.9% had preeclampsia compared to 5% in the control group. The cesarean section rate in the study group was higher than the control group (6.3% versus 2%, p=0.0331).
Pregnant women 17 years old or less were more likely to have maternal and neonatal morbidity, and were more likely to have abdominal deliveries.
研究17岁及以下怀孕女性的产科并发症。
2009年1月至12月在也门萨那的宰赫拉综合医院进行了一项回顾性研究。我们纳入了所有孕龄24周后在该医院单胎分娩的17岁及以下女性。研究组包括239例患者,并从20 - 24岁的女性中选取了一个对照组(n = 240)。数据从医院记录中获取。
17岁及以下女性怀孕与低出生体重的发生率高于对照组相关(21.3%对12%,p = 0.0091)。研究组贫血发生率更高(17.5%对7%,p = 0.0008)。研究组早产率为11.6%,对照组为5.4%。研究组7.9%患有先兆子痫,对照组为5%。研究组剖宫产率高于对照组(6.3%对2%,p = 0.0331)。
17岁及以下孕妇更有可能出现孕产妇和新生儿发病情况,且更有可能进行剖宫产。
