BABIES born to women with the problem of obesity was higher risk of death, especially in the first week after birth, compared with infants born to women with normal weight. Therefore, prevention of obesity or weight gain is too high during pregnancy needs to be done.
By comparing the mortality rate of newborns in the United States with other developed countries, the research team stated, if the results of a study published in Epidemiology in January 2009 was confirmed, the prevention of obesity should be done to reduce infant mortality.
According to Dr Aimin Chen of the Faculty of Medicine, Creighton University, Omaha, Nebraska, told Reuters in New York, last weekend, some evidence suggests, a higher mortality rate in infants born to women with obesity.
To browse a more detailed, the researchers compared the medical records of 4265 newborns who died and 7293 infant survivors using data from the Maternal and Infant Health Survey National Year of 1988. Of the total number of babies who died, had a mother as much as 8.8 percent overweight, compared with 5.9 per cent in babies who survived.
Babies born to obese mothers had a higher risk of death in the first year of life, especially the first 28 days of birth, compared with infants born to normal-weight mothers.
The study also revealed the highest infant death cases in obese pregnant women who gained 0.45 pounds per week.
Infant mortality rate in obese women is also higher than the rate of infant mortality due to pregnancy complications, premature babies, or babies with low birth weight.
Unfortunately, they conducted studies based on data including the elderly, namely 1988. In fact, since 1988, the prevalence of obesity and the average weight gain during pregnancy has increased, while infant mortality rate is decreasing to 20 percent.
However, according to the researchers note, preterm birth-related infant mortality and low birth weight still have to watch out for.
