Risk factors as an indicator of non-complications spontaneous preterm birth: A study in eight hospitals

To determine the indicator and identify risk factors for noncomplicated spontaneous preterm birth A case-control study analysis on 276 mothers after spontaneous preterm and aterm birth were eight hospitals in Indonesia. Among 28 risk factors, we found six most significant risk factors including a novel indicator, Edinburgh Postnatal Distress Scale (OR 6.66, CI 95%:1.36-32.56, p 13 and OR 6.15, CI 95%:2.06-18.34, p 5 hr/day (OR 5.41, CI 95%:2.33-13.54, p 2 times preterm birth (OR 16.26, CI 95%:1.71-154.37, p<0.015). We revealed the six indicators of risk factors for a spontaneous preterm birth that may help decision-making in determining an early intervention that measures in both early treatments.
