A cohort study was conducted in the Obstetrics Service of the "Carlos Manuel de Céspedes" University General Hospital of Bayamo from January 1 to June 30 2009, in patients underwent caesarean section for the first time to identify the behavior of some perinatal factors associated with this intervention and to show the relation between parity and mother age and also the pathologies associated with or own of pregnancy and the cervical status, to identify the relation between the gestational age and the birth weight, as well as the presence of meconium and the cervical status. There were 2 122 births from which 694 were by original caesarean sections with a rate of 32.7%. From the analysis of previous parity and its relation with the mother age under 20 it was possible to achieve a statistic association (p = 7.134E - 06). In the relation of associated pathologies or own of pregnancy with a unfavorable cervical status there was a 35.88 % of study group. Regarding the meconium presence with the above mentioned status, the statistic association was significant (p = 5,712E -06). We conclude that study factors are associated statistically with the original caesarean section and they are able to increase its rate.
