Introduction: Macrosomia is a common complication in obstetrics and gynecology and its complications usually expose mother and fetus at risk. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence rate of macrosomia and related risk factors in pregnant women in Bojnourd.
Methods: This descriptive analytic study was performed on 7908 pregnant women referred to Bentolhoda Hospital. Mothers with macrosomic infant were selected as case and the same number of women with term and normal delivery were selected as control groups. Data was analyzed by SPSS 24 software.
Results: Maternal mean age, weight gain and duration of pregnancy were significantly increased among macrosomia group. Previous history of macrosomic infant and maternal hyperglycemia was directly related to increased risk of macrosomia. We did not find correlation between macrosomia and increased risk of neonatal malformations, shoulder dystocia, clavicle fractures, brachial plexus damage and maternal complication after delivery and increased cesarean section.
Conclusions: Due to 2.41% macrosomia frequency in Bojnourd city and its significant relationship with risk factors such as maternal age, mean pregnancy weight gain and pregnancy duration, maternal diabetes and macrosomic birth history, appropriate planning for pregnancy and Entering a well-weighted pregnancy and enjoying a varied and healthy diet will help maintain and promote maternal and neonatal health in the normal weight range.
