Abstract
Ces trente dernières années, on note en Suisse une augmentation significative de l'incidence du syndrome de détresse respiratoire (SDR) chez le nouveau-né (NN), touchant particulièrement les enfants avec un poids de naissance >2500 g. En même temps, le taux des césariennes (CS) s'est aussi accru. Une explication pour une éventuelle corrélation entre les deux évolutions est une augmentation en particulier des CS électives qui ont tendance à être planifiées à un terme précoce pour éviter la mise en travail spontanée. Suite à cela, le foetus est privé de différents mécanismes qui favorisent l'adaptation pulmonaire périnatale. Les bénéfices réels de la CS sur la morbidité tant foetale que maternelle ne doivent pas faire oublier que la CS est un facteur de risque pour le SDR du NN. Ce risque peut être diminué efficacement en planifiant une CS élective après 39 semaines révolues.
In Switzerland, the rate of respiratory distress in neonates needing hospitalization has doubled over the last thirty years, concerning in particular babies weighing more than 2500 g. In the same time, the rate of Caesarean section (CS) has also multiplied. We suppose that a link between the two evolutions might be the increase of elective CS. They tend to be planned early at term to avoid the onset of spontaneous labour As a consequence, the foetus is deprived of different mechanisms helping pulmonary transition around birth. The potential benefits of CS regarding morbidity of foetus and mother should not overshadow that CS is a significant risk factor for respiratory problems of the neonate. This risk could be dramatically decreased by planning elective CS only after completed 39 weeks of gestation
