Abstract

|
|
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to compare postpartum symptoms of 528 women by age groups and delivery method through health questionnaires of postpartum care center.
Methods : From January 2018 to December 2018, we statistically compared the 528 women’s postpartal symptoms who divided into 4 age groups using SPSS Statistics 21.0 program.
Results : There were no differences in weight changes, gestational age and degree of subjective discomfort by age(p>.05). On the other hand, parity, fetal weight and delivery method were statistically associated with age(p<.05). Especially the rate of cesarean delivery was increased with age. Degree of feeling dyspepsia and edema was higher in cesarean section delivery group(p<.05). Also, as the weight increased by 1kg during pregnancy, the degree of feeling postnatal edema increased by 0.204(=0.204, t=4.204, p<.05).
Conclusion : This study showed that age itself will not affect postpartum symptoms alone. Instead it is necessary to consider post-cesarean delivery symptoms for advanced maternal age.
