Deliveries by obese women tend to have higher rates of induction of labour , caesarean section and dystocia from macrosomic babies 14-17 • OBJECTIVE • To determine the value of total gestational weight gain, describe the association of gestational weight gain with sociodemographic background and to evaluate whether gestational weight gain has a role in predicting the pregnancy outcomes amongst the obstetrics population in Seberang Jaya Hospital in 3 months duration • METHODOLOGY • A cross-sectional cohort study • A total of 674 pregnant women with singleton pregnancy who came to deliver vaginally in Seberang Jaya Hospital from 17th February 2010 until 17th May 2010 and were booked at their respective health clinic at ≤ 12 weeks period of amenorrhoea were successfully recruited • Their maternal antepartum, intrapartum and postpartum event as well as neonatal outcomes were documented • The data was analysed using Statistical Package for Social Science version 18 • RESULTS • Total deliveries in Seberang Jaya Hospital during the 3 months study period were 1865 deliveries • The number of recruited patients was 674, therefore at least 36% of obstetric population of Seberang Jaya were booked at ≤ 12 weeks period of amenorrhoea • Majority of the mothers were Malay (81.6%), primigravida (29.9%) and were less than 35 years old (81.5%) • The mean of total gestational weight gain in the recruited sample was 10.3 ± 4.95 kg • Gestational weight gain is observed to be higher in the younger age group and in women who came to deliver at more advanced period of gestation • Less weight gain is observed in women with higher gravidity, parity and higher pre-pregnancy body mass index • Women of younger age and lower parity were associated with more gestational weight gain compared to older and higher parity women. • Although there is no optimum or normal amount of weight to be gained during pregnancy, this study showed significant correlations between total pregnancy weight gain to maternal and fetal complications. • The results of this study emphasized the importance of educating women to know their pre-pregnancy weight and not to put on excessive weight during their pregnancy Age, Pre-pregnancy weight, Total weight gain and Birth weight in different group of patient with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (n=674) Total gestational weight gain (n=674) Comparison in the mean of total gestational weight gain and the statistically significantcategorical independent variables using ANOVA (F test) Overall study population characteristics (n=674) Correlation between total gestational weight gain and statistically significant continuous variable (@ Spearman rho’s correlation, # Pearson correlation) References • Health implications of obesity.
