Morbilidad percibida y atención prenatal en mujeres marginadas de Chiapas, México

Objective. To estimate the frequency of perceived morbidity during pregnancy in residents of marginal urban areas, as well as to assess the relationship between this and the number of prenatal visits. Material and methods. A transversal study was carried out in 15 urban marginal settlements in Chiapas. The sample included women of 15 to 49 years old, who were pregnancy in the year previous this study (n=230). The investigation assesses the perceived morbidity and prenatal care. The Odds Ratio was estimate in the bivariate analysis. Multivariate analysis was performed with binomial logistic regression; variables included in the model were those that had a p-value under to 0.20 in the bivariate analysis. The analysis of one-way analysis of variance estimated the relationship between the different categories of morbidity and the number of prenatal care visits. Results. A less risk of reported morbidity among indigenous women was estimated, which was associated with a lower number of prenatal care visits. Conclusions. It is important to modify the practices of the reproductive health program, especially for indigenous and marginal women.
