Abstract:
【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate pregnancy outcomes of multiparae in women with advanced age (≥35 yr.) after the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. Methods Clinical data of 542 pregnant women with prenatal care in Wenchuan during 20082013 were reviewed, comparing preconception conditions, pregnant rates, pregnant complications, and perinatal outcomes between those younger ( n=176) and older ( n=366) than 35 years. Results In the 542 women, 622 conceptions were reported, with 517 deliveries and 522 live births. The women with advanced age had lower cumulative pregnancy rate (twoyear), higher incidence of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, gestational diabetes, multiple pregnancy, fetal distress, low birth weight and birth defects than their younger counterparts. The younger women also had higher term live birth rate and lower miscarriage rate. But the differences showed no statistical significance. Conclusion Prenatal care brings similar pregnant outcomes to multiparae in women with advance aged and younger aged.
