    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-05-08) Huaraca Nestares, Yhovana; Ayala Peralta, Félix Dasio
    Objective: To identify scientific publications on advanced maternal age as a risk factor associated with obstetric morbidity. Methodology: The review was conducted through an electronic search of articles related to advanced maternal age as a risk factor associated with obstetric morbidity. Literature and publications from LATINDEX, SCIELO, LILACS, PUBMED, REDALYC, SCOPUS, and the Repository of the Norbert Wiener University were used. Original articles published in journals from Peru and abroad from 2012-2020 were included. Results: 87.5% of the publications show that women with advanced maternal age (≥35 years) are more likely to experience adverse obstetric outcomes such as preeclampsia, hypertension, gestational diabetes, preterm birth, and cesarean delivery. 12.5% of the publications indicate that very advanced maternal age (≥45 years), often a result of assisted reproductive technology, is associated with an increased risk of various obstetric pathologies, mainly preeclampsia and a higher rate of cesareans. Eight studies report adjusted odds ratios (ORa) for preeclampsia ranging from ORa=1.25-3.05; gestational diabetes ORa=1.83-5.96; preterm birth ORa=1.10-3.2; and cesarean ORa=1.33-2.8. Additionally, two studies show adjusted relative risks (RRa) for preeclampsia ORa=1.3-1.86; preterm birth RRa=1.20; and cesarean RRa=1.7. Conclusion: Advanced maternal age is mainly associated with preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, preterm birth, and a high cesarean rate.
