BALESTENA SANCHEZ, Jorge M; BALESTENA SANCHEZ, Sonia G; PEREZ CHIRINO, Alexis e SALGUEIRO MEDINA, Víctor E. Behavior of podalic presentation in primigravid woman. Perinatal results. Rev Ciencias Médicas [online]. 2005, vol.9, n.3, pp. 51-60. ISSN 1561-3194.
In order to analyze the behaviour the perinatal results in podalic presentation in pregnants with delivery and without delivery, a retrospective, cross - sectional and analytic research was performed at Abel Santamaria University Hospital from May, 2001 and December, 2002. The universe in the study consisted of all births taking place during the analyzed period, whereas the sample comprised all births taking place with podalic presentation; this group was devided into two: group A which is formed by pregnants with no previous delivery and group B formed by pregnants with previous delivery. Defferent variates of the mother, delivery and new born were analyzed. The statistical analysis was performed by percent, mean, and standard deviation; and for comparing groups chi square test was used with a p <0.05 significance level. There was an association between adolescents with podalic presentation and group A, and between women raging from 30 to 34 years of age and group B. Post-term pregnancy was associated with previous deliveries; an association between caesarean section and group A, and eutocic delivery and group B was significant. The newborn´s weight, Apgar and morbidity did not turn out to be statistically significant. As a conclusion, perinatal results in the podalic presentation are similar both for primigravidas and for those women having previous deliveries.
