Epidemiology of Breech presentation of admitted pregnant women to emergency maternity centers of Kerman, 1997
B.Sh Aali *
Abstract:   (9109 Views)
Objective: Breech is the most common presentation of the fetus after cephalic one. Maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity is relatively more frequent with this type of presentation. This study was done to obtain information about its epidemiology in Kerman. Methods: In a cross-sectional study during the year 1997, 1500 pregnant women admitted for delivery at the two major emergency maternity centers of Kerman city were studied. Findings: Incidence of breech presentation was 3.4%. There was a significant statistical relationship between breech presentation and route of delivery and also gestational age in this study. Conclusion: Incidence of breech presentation in Kerman is not different from that in other parts of the world. But its relationship with factors such as gestational age and route of delivery in comparison to cephalic presentation must be taken into consideration.
