Introducción: La edad materna avanzada se ha asociado con un aumento en el riesgo de morbimortalidad perinatal. Conocer los factores asociados ayudará a tomar las decisiones médicas correctas sobre cada paciente y disminuir las complicaciones. Objetivo: Evaluar la morbilidad asociada con la edad materna avanzada en los recién nacidos pretérmino ingresados a la UCIN del Hospital Español de México. Material y métodos: Estudio observacional, descriptivo, retrospectivo que incluyó a todos los recién nacidos pretérmino ingresados a la UCIN entre marzo de 2014 y septiembre de 2016. Se registró género, edad gestacional, peso, días de estancia y diagnósticos de egreso. Resultados: Se obtuvieron 460 recién nacidos pretérmino, 258 (56.1%) fueron hijos de madres de edad avanzada. Se encontraron resultados significativos al analizar la prevalencia de enfermedad hipóxico-isquémica y enterocolitis necrosante, y mayor frecuencia de patologías como broncodisplasia, apneas del prematuro, cardiopatías congénitas, restricción del crecimiento intrauterino y trisomía 21. La mortalidad global fue del 5.6%; 2.4% corresponde a recién nacidos pretérmino con antecedente de edad materna avanzada. Conclusiones: Los resultados obtenidos son importantes, pues hasta el momento la complicación asociada con la edad materna avanzada más estudiada ha sido el riesgo de premadurez, y en el caso de nuestro estudio la presencia de enterocolitis necrosante y enfermedad hipóxico-isquémica. Introduction: Advanced maternal age has been associated with an increased risk of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Knowing the associated factors will help make the right medical decisions about each patient and decrease the complications. Objective: To evaluate morbidity associated with advanced maternal age in preterm infants admitted to the NICU of the Hospital Español. Material and methods: An observational, descriptive, retrospective study that included all newborns who were admitted to the NICU between March 2014 to September 2016. Gender, gestational age, weight, days of stay and discharge diagnoses were recorded. Results: We obtained 460 preterm infants, 258 (56.1%) were children of elderly mothers. Significant results were seen when analyzing the prevalence of hypoxic-ischemic disease and necrotizing enterocolitis, and a greater frequency of pathologies such as bronchodysplasia, premature apnea, congenital heart disease, intrauterine growth restriction and trisomy 21. Overall mortality was 5.6%, 2.4% corresponds to preterm newborns with a history of advanced maternal age. Conclusions: The results obtained are important, because so far, the complication associated with advanced maternal age more studied has been the risk of prematurity, and in the case of our study the presence of necrotizing enterocolitis and hypoxic-ischemic disease.

Introduction. Congenital malformations are morphological or functional defects that are present at birth because of genetic and / or environmental, they affect between 2-5 % of births. With prevalence between 1.5 to 4 %, which can be increased to 7% during the first year of life in Peru, the prevalence of congenital malformations is 1.7%. Objective: To identify maternal factors associated with congenital malformations in newborns. Material and Methods: An observational case-control study was performed, the database Perinatal Information System Hospital Belén de Trujillo, 2010-2012 was used. The case group consisted of 145 infants with birth defects and 435 infants without congenital malformations to the control group. Results: The frequency of risk factors in both groups, as well as the strength of association between factors and malformations, were analyzed the factors that force showed statistically significant association was teenage maternal age-advanced maternal age (OR = 1.69 IC95% 1.4-3.1) and preterm gestational age (OR = 4.5 IC95% 2.7-7.4). Conclusions: The preterm gestational age and teen-advanced age maternal are risk factors for a newborn to develop birth defects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Over the last decades, the incidence of advanced maternal age has increased worldwide, affecting the incidence of neonatal complications. Objective: To describe the perinatal outcomes of patients aged 35 and older who received care at birth in the Spanish Hospital in Mexico City and compare these results with those reported in the literature. Material and methods: A retrospective and descriptive study. 736 newborns were included and 672 mothers 35 years and older, from March 2012 to March 2013 in the Spanish Hospital. Data was obtained from clinical records. For statistical analysis means, standard deviations and Student's t-distribution were obtained for continuous variables and frequencies. Percentages and Chi-square test were calculated for categorical and binomial variables. A second analysis was performed to compare the multiple pregnancies vs singleton pregnancies. Results: The incidence of advanced maternal age was 33.34%. 15.63% of patients had a disease associated to pregnancy. The most common neonatal complication was preterm labor (28.67%), followed by low birth weight (26.36%). In a second analysis stratified by number of products, we found significant differences among infants of singleton compared to multiple pregnancies for prematurity, low birth weight and NICU admissions.

Spontaneous pregnancy rates in women aged 35 years or older are smaller due to the decline in ovary reserve over the years. Oocytes have greater incidence of chromosompathies that condition a higher abortion incidence. Maternal age is associated with greater prevalence of chronic-degenerative diseases and changes proper to aging. Due to these conditions, neuroaxial anesthesia and cesarean surgery are recommended. We present a case report of a 47 year old woman with multiple pregnancies who without any assisted fertilization techniques achieves a complete pregnancy with a unique living product. The mother and the product were reported with no complications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
