Descrição
Resumo:OBJETIVE: To determine the relationship between short maternal height (< 146 cm) and cesarean section incidence. Historical cohort study. Patients: Ninety-four primiparae: 47 < 146 cm high and 47 ³146 cm, 19 to 34 year-old with pregnancies between 37and 41 weeks, spontaneous onsetand without other risk factors forcesarean section. Results: Of the short women, 29,7% had cesarean section, and only 8,5% of those ³ 146 cm required cesarean section, with statistical significance between small stature and cesarean section (X2= 6,9, g.l= 1, p < 0, 05). Women below 146 cm were 3,5 times more likely to have a cesarean section than taller women (RR = 3,5; CI,1-11, 6). CONCLUSIÓN: Short maternal height is associated with more cesarean section rates.
