TARQUI M, Carolina e BARREDA G, Alejandro. Factores Asociados con la elección del parto domiciliario en una zona de atención primaria. Callao, Perú.. Rev. perú. med. exp. salud publica [online]. 2005, vol.22, n.2, pp.109-116. ISSN 1726-4634.
Objectives: To identify personal and institutional factors associated with choice of in house preference as a place for delivery a child. Materials and methods: A case control study was performed in Pachacutec micro-network, Ventanilla district, Callao, Peru. 52 cases were included: fertile women whose last delivery occurred at home; and 208 controls: fertile women living in the same geographical area with a history of institutional delivery. OR and 95% confidence intervals were calculated, a bivariated analysis was performed and significant variables were entered in a logistic regression model in a multivariated analysis. Results: Average age of cases included was of 28 ± 6,5 years, and the controls of 26 ± 6,1 years. Bivariated analysis showed a significant association for a variety of factors, but when multivariated analysis was used, this association was not confirmed. Finally, risk factors were as follows: poor continuity for personnel taking care of the delivery w=25,78 (p=0,00); OR=25,48 (95% CI: 7,30-88,93); poor understanding in the dialogue between health care providers and user during health consultation w=7,61 (p=0,006); OR=4,34 (95%: CI 1,53-12,31); and the household as planned place for giving birth w=25,14 (p=0,000); OR=16,84 (95% IC: 5,58-50,8). Conclusions: Continuity of personnel taking care of the delivery, a poor understanding in the dialogue between health care providers and user during health consultation; and the household as a chosen place for giving birth are highly associated with in-house delivery.
