Résumé
To determine whether obesity is an independent risk factor for cesarean delivery in Martinique.
A retrospective study was performed using data for deliveries that occurred at the University Hospital of Fort de France between January and September 2010. Women were divided into four groups on the basis of body mass index (BMI, calculated as weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters; < 25 [group 1], 25-29 [group 2], 30-39 [group 3], and ≥ 40 [group 4]). Independent risk factors for cesarean delivery were identified through multivariate analysis.
Overall, 1286 women were included. Mean weight gain was lower in groups 2 (9.9 kg, 95% CI 9.2-10.7), 3 (5.7 kg, 4.7-6.7), and 4 (1.0 kg,-1.5 to 3.5), than in group 1 (12.3 kg, 11.9-12.7; P < 0.001 for all). In univariate analysis, cesarean deliveries were more frequent among nulliparous women in group 2 (P = 0.007) and group 3 (P = 0.053) than among those in group 1. In multivariate analysis, BMI was not associated with cesarean delivery (BMI 25-29: adjusted odds ratio 0.64, 95% CI 0.33-1.25; BMI ≥ 30: 0.61, 0.29-1.39).
Obesity was not an independent risk factor for cesarean delivery. Weight control and a positive attitude towards trial of labor in obese women could have led to the findings.
