ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Objetivo: Determinar la relación entre la anemia materna del primer trimestre y el bajo peso al nacer de cuatro centros de salud maternos de Lima-Sur durante el 2019. Materiales y métodos: Se realizó un estudio cohorte retrospectivo de una base de datos secundaria donde se incluyeron gestantes atendidas en cuatro Centros de Salud con nivel de complejidad I-4 de Lima-Sur; cuyos partos se registraron durante el 2019, excluyendo a los recién nacidos pretérmino. Una hemoglobina del primer trimestre <11 g/dl se definió como anemia y un peso <2500 g como bajo peso al nacer. Se calculó la incidencia acumulada según anemia y se halló el riesgo relativo (RR) ajustado a potenciales confusores. Resultados: Se incluyó 221 gestantes y el 76 % tuvo una edad entre 18 a 35 años. Un 42 % fue primigesta, un 52 % presentó exceso de peso y el 60 % realizó 6 o más controles prenatales. Un 23,5 % de gestantes presentó anemia en el primer trimestre y se halló una incidencia de 2,7 % casos con bajo peso al nacer. La anemia del primer trimestre elevó en 11 veces la incidencia de recién nacidos con bajo peso, independiente de la edad, índice de masa corporal y paridad (RR ajustado = 11,1; IC 95 % 1,3 - 97,2; p=0,029). Conclusiones: De la muestra estudiada, una de cada cuatro gestantes presenta anemia durante el primer trimestre incrementando la incidencia acumulada de tener un neonato con bajo peso hasta en 11 veces.


ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the relationship between maternal anemia in the first trimester of pregnancy and low birth weight in four mother-and-child-health centers in Southern Lima during 2019. Material and methods: A retrospective cohort study from a secondary database was performed, where pregnant women from 4 middle-complexity Health Centers from Southern Lima were included. Deliveries took place during 2019, excluding preterm newborns. First trimester hemoglobin concentration <11 g/dL was defined as anemia and birth weight <2500 g was defined as low birth weight. Cumulative incidence for anemia was calculated, and relative risk (RR) adjusted for potential confounders was also calculated. Results: Two hundred and twenty one pregnant women were included. Seventy-six per cent were between 18 and 35 years old. Forty-two percent were primigravida, fifty-two percent had excess body weight, and sixty percent had six or more prenatal control visits. Nearly one quarter (23,5%) of all pregnant women had anemia during the first trimester, and there were 2,7% cases of low birth weight. Anemia during the first trimester of pregnancy increased 11 times the frequency of newborns with low birth weight, independently of age, body mass index, and parity (adjusted RR = 11,1; 95% CI: 1,3-97,2; p= 0,029). Conclusions: In the studied sample, one out of four pregnant women had anemia during the first trimester of pregnancy, increasing up to 11 times the cumulative incidence for having a neonate with low birth weight.
