Resumo
Objectives: to investigate factors potentially asso-
ciated to cesarean sections and abortions.
Methods: data from a cohort study during post-
partum were analyzed for 352 women aged 15-45
years old. The following outcomes were studied:
cesarean sections and abortions prior to current preg-
nancy. Statistical analysis included multivariate
logistic regression models with hierarchical
approach.
Results: c-sections and abortions prevalence were
36.3% and 34.0%, respectively. The final model indi-
cated that the following variables remained associa-
ted to cesarean sections: level 1: Caucasian white
(OR=2.02; 95%CI: 1.29-3.16); level 2: tubal ligation
(OR=19.68; 95%CI: 5.77-67.15). The following va-
riables remained associated to abortion occurrence:
level 1: age >29 years (OR=6.11; 95%CI: 2.94-
12.72); marital status: married (OR=4.22; 95%CI:
2.03-8.78), single (OR=3.70; 95%CI: 1.59-8.61).
Conclusions: white Caucasian women and tubal
ligation were potentially associated co-variables for
cesarean sections performance while marital status
and maternal age were associated to abortions,
prevalent in women over 29 years old
