Abstract

Objective: Determine the risk factors associated with Intrauterine Growth Restriction (IUGR), in patients of Simon Bolivar Hospital in Barranquilla (Colombia), January 2012-June 2013. Materials and Methods: Case-control study in 50 patients with gestational age to term and products with Intra- uterine Growth Restriction in Simon Bolivar Hospital of Barranquilla (Colombia), the control group consisted of 50 patients whose products showed no abnormality. For tabulation was used Epi-Info 3.5.1. The p value was <0.05. Results: For age <18 years was obtained: OR = 3.95, CI = 1.36 - 11.4, p = 0.008; findings for low socioeconomic status were: OR = 3.09, CI = 1.22 - 7.82, p = 0.01; results for the condition of primiparous were: OR = 3.08, CI = 1.37 - 6.91, p = 0.005; weight <55 kg: OR = 5.64, CI = 1.35 - 23.6, p = 0.009; weight gain (<8 kg) showed: OR = 2.68, CI = 1.19 - 6.03, p = 0.01; in the case of smoking was found: OR = 5.68, CI = 1.03 - 34.4, p = 0.03; for anemia OR = 2.32, CI = 1.02 - 5.28 and p = 0.04; height <165 cm showed OR = 2.98, CI = 1.08 - 8.263, p = 0.03 and placental abnormalities OR = 6.29, CI = 1.51 - 26.1, p = 0.005. Conclusion: Age <18 years, low socioeconomic status, maternal height <165 cm, maternal weight less than 55 kg at the end of gestation, primiparity, placental abnormalities, low maternal weight gain, anemia and smoking dur- ing pregnancy, are risk factors for IUGR.
