RESUMEN
Fundamento. Alto porcentaje de nacimientos de inmigrantesen nuestro entorno e impresión de mayor morbilidadperinatal. Objetivo. Valorar si existen diferencias entre la morbilidadneonatal de dos poblaciones y posibles factoresmodificables.Método. Estudio descriptivo retrospectivo a partir derevisiones de historias clínicas correspondientes a los partosdel año 2000 (596 partos) en el Hospital de Palamós.Análisis estadístico del resultado del parto en 115 gestantesmagrebíes y 115 autóctonas; y de la morbilidad neonatalen 114 neonatos magribíes y 457 autóctonos.Resultados. -Parto En el grupo magrebí, mayor númerode partos eutócicos, menor de cesáreas y menor usode analgesia durante el parto (p<0,01). -Neonatal En elgrupo magrebí, mayor porcentaje de ingresos neonatales(p<0,01). Los principales motivos de ingreso en los dos gruposson el riesgo de infección (50,9% entre los autóctonosy 73,07% entre los magrebíes, p<0,01) y la hiperbilirrubinemia(15,45% y 19,23% respectivamente). El índice deriesgo por madre portadora de estreptococo β hemolíticodel grupo B o desconocido es el resultado con mayor diferenciaentre los dos grupos (p<0,01), por encima de la roturaprolongada de membranas (p<0,05). Más neonatoscon peso por encima del percentil 90 (p<0,05).Conclusiones. Las diferencias halladas en el análisis delparto deben atribuirse a la mayor paridad de las magribins.En lo referente a la morbilidad neonatal es difícil igualarlos dos grupos dado que hay factores sobre los que no sepuede incidir.

ABSTRACT
Background. In recent years, there has been a significantincrease in the percentage of births from immigrantpopulation, with a perceived increased perinatal morbidity.Objective. To compare neonatal morbidity rates betweenimmigrant population of Magrebi origin and nativepopulation, and to determine possible modifiable factors.Method. Historical descriptive study based on a reviewof clinical records of infants born in 2000 (596 deliveries) atthe Palamos Hospital. The outcome of the pregnancies of115 Magrebi and 115 native women, and the neonatal morbidityin 114 and 457 native newborns, were compared.Results. Deliveries In the Magrebi group, a higher proportionof eutocic deliveries, fewer cesarean sections, andless use of analgesics during the labour, were found(p<0.01). Neonatal morbidity In the Magrebi group, wefound a higher percentage of neonatal admissions (p<0.01).In both groups, the main reasons for admission were therisk of infection (50.9% and 73.0% in the native and Magrebipopulations, respectively, p<0.01) and hyperbilirrubinemia(15.4% and 19.2%, respectively). The greatest difference in risk index in the Magrebi population was for mothers carryinggroup B β hemolytic streptococcus or with unknowncarrier status, (p<0.01), followed by prolonged membranerupture (p<0.05). A greater proportion of Magrebi newbornshad birth weight above the 90th percentile (p<0.05).Conclusions. The differences in the analysis of the deliveriesare probably related to the higher parity amongthe Magrebi families. Regarding the differences in neonatalmorbidity rates, interventions aiming at decreasing thisgap are challenging, given the disparities between bothpopulations. We suggest that special measures are appliedto the immigrant group
