| Abstrakt: | Objective: Pregnancy is a natural physiological process, but certain conditions can increase the risk, leading to high-risk pregnancy. Several risk factors may cause high-risk pregnancy. The leading ones are chronic diseases, anemia, multiple pregnancies, premature rupture of membrane, preeclampsia, obesity, frequent pregnancy, and advanced maternal age. Patients and Methods: A total of 7,230 women with high-risk pregnancies followed up by the Unit of Women's and Reproductive Health of the Directorate of Public Health Services, Kayseri Provincial Directorate of Health between 2016 and 2020 were included in the study. Demographic data, pregnancy outcomes, and risk factors were recorded. The mean age was 27.62±6.55 years. The mean number of pregnancy follow-ups was 3.69±1.36. The mean number of follow-ups for Turkish pregnant women was 3.73±1.34 while it was 1.93±1.1 for foreign pregnant women. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the effect of risk factors on pregnancy outcomes. Results: Pregnancies that did not result in live birth were associated with preeclampsia (OR=12.677), hypertension (HT) (OR=2.079), and cardiovascular disorders (OR=2.277). It was revealed that the number of follow-ups for high-risk pregnancies was low. Conclusions: In conclusion, we believe that increasing monitoring of high-risk pregnancies and developing follow-up models by health authorities will improve the quality of monitoring for high-risk pregnancies. |
