Out-of-hospital deliveries: A case-control study

Abstract: The risk of maternal and neonatal complications, as well as the neonatal mortality rate, were higher for unplanned out-of-hospital deliveries. It occurred predominantly in nonwhite, older, multiparous women who had received incomplete antenatal care and who lived far from perinatal care centers.

“…Risk factors for planned or unplanned out-of-hospital births have been widely explored, highlighting contribution of factors including ethnic group, age, parity, prenatal care, education, labour duration, smoking or distance to maternity center [3, 11, 12, 20]. Perinatal morbidity and mortality in planned and unplanned out-of-hospital births was associated with several factors, including postpartum hemorrhage, puerperal complications, low birth weight, polycythemia, and hypothermia [9, 10, 12, 13, 19]. Unsurprisingly, as reported in our cohort, prematurity worsens perinatal prognosis [21].…”

“…Hypothermia is the most frequently described adverse outcome [7, 8]. However, knowledge is limited by the small sample size of the previous studies, and most of them had insufficient power to accurately assess adverse events [12, 13]. Thus, perinatal outcome in unplanned out-of-hospital births remains unclear and large multicentric cohorts are needed to examine perinatal morbidity and mortality and their determinants.…”

“…Although childbirth care in health facilities or accompanied by skilled health personnel is encouraged, in various regions of the world, especially in low-income countries, home births represent more than 50% of the total number of births [ 9 , 10 ]. Higher rates of maternal and perinatal complications and deaths have been described in home births, as well as difficulties in managing complications due to the need for transfer to a health facility [ 11 , 12 , 13 ].…”

“…Data for blood PBMC differential cell counts and animal study were displayed as boxplots, which indicate the median, interquartile range, and the largest and smallest values for the number of experiments indicated. The normality of distribution was determined using the Kolmogorov–Smirnov or Shapiro–Wilk tests ( Diana et al, 2018 ). Correlations were determined using Pearson’s correlation analysis.…”
