Abstract:
:This article aims to assess the influence of hospital characteristics on the odds of performing an elective cesarean in the Southeast region of Brazil. Data were obtained from the Birth in Brazil study, conducted from February 2011 to October 2012. The current analysis includes the sample from Southeast Brazil, with 10,155 women. The group of women that underwent elective cesareans was compared to the women who went into labor or underwent labor induction, regardless they had intrapartum cesarean or vaginal delivery. Except for gestational age, all the obstetric characteristics analyzed were associated with elective cesarean. In this group, 60.5% had no prior cesarean and 64.7% had low-risk gestations. Among the births with public financing, there were higher odds of elective cesareans in women treated at hospitals with < 1,500 births/year (OR = 2.11; 95%CI: 1.37-3.26) and 1,500-2,999 births/year (OR = 1.45; 95%CI: 1.04-2.02) and in mixed hospitals (OR = 1.81; 95%CI: 1.37-2.39). In the mixed hospitals, the association was stronger when located in non-capital cities with > 3,000 births/year (OR = 3.45; 95%CI: 1.68-7.08), reaching the highest level in hospitals in non-capital cities with < 3,000 births/year (OR = 4.08; 95%CI: 2.61-6.37). Meanwhile, no association was seen between elective cesarean and public hospitals located in non-capital cities of the Southeast region. Prevalence rates of elective cesareans in public hospitals in Southeast Brazil are high when compared to other countries, and they are heavily influenced by hospital characteristics. :Este artigo tem como objetivo avaliar a influência das características hospitalares sobre a chance de realização de cesariana eletiva na Região Sudeste do Brasil. Foram utilizados dados da pesquisa Nascer no Brasil, realizada entre fevereiro de 2011 e outubro de 2012. A presente análise inclui a amostra da Região Sudeste, compreendendo 10.155 mulheres. O grupo de mulheres submetidas à cesariana eletiva foi comparado ao de mulheres que entraram em trabalho de parto ou foram submetidas à indução do parto, independentemente se fizeram cesariana intraparto ou parto vaginal. Com exceção da idade gestacional, todas as características obstétricas analisadas mostraram-se associadas à cesariana eletiva. Nesse grupo, 60,5% não possuíam cesariana prévia à gestação atual e 64,7% eram de baixo risco. Dentre os partos com financiamento público, observou-se maior chance de cesárea eletiva nas mulheres que foram atendidas nos hospitais com < 1.500 (OR = 2,11; IC95%: 1,37-3,26) e entre 1.500-2.999 partos/ano (OR = 1,45; IC95%: 1,04-2,02) e nos hospitais mistos (OR = 1,81; IC95%: 1,37-2,39). Nos hospitais mistos, a magnitude da associação é maior quando localizados em não capitais com volume > 3.000 partos/ano (OR = 3,45; IC95%: 1,68-7,08) e atinge seu maior valor nos hospitais localizados em não capitais com volume < 3.000 partos/ano (OR = 4,08; IC95%: 2,61-6,37). Em contrapartida, não observou-se associação entre cesariana eletiva e os hospitais públicos localizados em não capitais do Sudeste. As prevalências de cesariana eletiva nos hospitais públicos da Região Sudeste são altas quando comparadas a outros países, e sofrem importante influência das características hospitalares. :El objetivo de este artículo es evaluar la influencia de las características hospitalarias sobre la oportunidad de realización de cesáreas electivas en la región sudeste de Brasil. Se utilizan datos de la investigación Nacer en Brasil, realizada entre febrero de 2011 y octubre de 2012. El presente análisis incluye la muestra de la región sudeste, comprendiendo a 10.155 mujeres. El grupo de mujeres sometidas a una cesárea electiva se comparó con el de mujeres que entraron en trabajo de parto o fueron sometidas a la inducción del parto, independientemente si tuvieron cesárea intraparto o parto vaginal. Con excepción de la edad gestacional, todas las características obstétricas analizadas se mostraron asociadas con la cesárea electiva. En ese grupo un 60,5% no tuvieron una cesárea previa y un 64,7% tenían gestaciones de riesgo bajo. Entre los partos con financiación pública se observó una mayor oportunidad de cesárea electiva en las mujeres que fueron atendidas en los hospitales con < 1.500 (OR = 2,11; IC95%: 1,37-3,26) y entre 1.500-2.999 partos/año (OR = 1,45; IC95%: 1,04-2,02) y en los hospitales mixtos (OR = 1,81; IC95%: 1,37-2,39). En los hospitales mixtos, la magnitud de la asociación es mayor cuando están localizados fuera de la capital (OR = 3,45; IC95%: 1,68-7,08), en los con volumen > 3.000 partos/año, y alcanza su mayor valor en los hospitales fuera de las capitales con volumen < 3.000 partos/año (OR = 4,08; IC95%: 2,61-6,37). Como contrapartida, no se observó asociación entre cesárea electiva y los hospitales públicos localizados fuera de las capitales del sudeste. Las prevalencias de cesárea electiva en los hospitales públicos de la región sudeste son altas, cuando se comparan con las de otros países, y sufren una importante influencia de las características hospitalarias.
