Factores maternos y fetales asociados a la inducción del trabajo de parto, Hospital Vicente Corral Moscoso, Cuenca 2019

Abstract

Background: Induction of labor is a frequent practice in obstetrics, with an increase in its numbers being observed in recent decades worldwide. Objective: To determine the maternal and fetal factors associated with labor induction in hospitalized patients in the Gynecology and Obstetrics department of the Vicente Corral Moscoso hospital, Cuenca, 2019. Methods: Analytical study carried out on 208 pregnant women admitted to the Gynecology and Obstetrics area who met the inclusion criteria. The information was processed in the SPSS version 15 program. For the analysis we used descriptive statistics based on frequencies and percentages, the statistical association was measured with the Chi 2 test and Prevalence Ratio (RP), 95% confidence interval, considering statistically significant p <0.05. Results: The mean age was 24.7 (SD ± 5.93), secondary education, stable marital status predominated. There was association and statistical significance of maternal-fetal factors to induction of labor such as: premature rupture of membranes RP 2.97 (95% CI: 2.09–4.24 p-value 0.000); preeclampsia RP 2.13 (95% CI: 1.46–3.10 p-value 0.000); late term pregnancy RP 2.91 (95% CI: 2.12–3.99 p-value 0.000); intrauterine growth restriction RP 3.22 (95% CI: 2.62-3.95 p-value 0.000). Not so for chorioamnionitis RP 3.08 (95% CI: 2.53–3.76 p value 0.33) and fetal death RP 1.55 (95% CI: 0.68–3.54 p value 0.31). Conclusions: There was an association and statistical significance with maternal-fetal factors associated with induction such as: premature rupture of membranes, pre-eclampsia, late-term pregnancy, intrauterine growth restriction. Not so for chorioamnionitis and fetal death.
