    Objective: To determine the factors associated with uterine atony in cesarean postpartum women at Hospital Suárez Angamos III during the period 2018 to 2023. Material and methods: Quantitative, analytical observational case-control study. The sample size was 144, with uterine atony as the outcome variable and sociodemographic, clinical, and laboratory covariates. A data collection sheet was used, along with descriptive and analytical statistics, calculating the crude and adjusted Odds Ratio (OR) with a significance level of p<0.05. Results: 29.17% (n=14) were over 35 years old, the median blood loss volume was 800cc (IQR: 500-2700), 62.5% (n=30) had comorbidities, 72.92% (n=35) had adequate prenatal care, 25% (n=12) had a long inter-pregnancy interval, 8.33% (n=4) had a history of uterine atony, 50% (n=24) had multiparity, 56.25% (n=27) had previous severe preeclampsia, 91.67% (n=44) had thrombocytopenia, and 79.17% (n=38) had anemia. In the crude and adjusted models using Poisson regression, no statistically significant association with uterine atony was reported. Conclusion: No statistically significant associations were found between uterine atony and sociodemographic, clinical, or laboratory factors in cesarean postpartum women.
