Abstract

According to many authors, a woman's age is an important risk factor for complicated pregnancy and childbirth, but numerous studies are contradictory. An increase in the age of the mother at the birth of the first child is accompanied by an increase in the general morbidity, the presence of chronic pathology, which reduces reproductive potential and the quality of perinatal outcomes. In this study, a woman's age was analyzed for the frequency of labor weakness, as well as for the course and outcome of labor in women with abnormalities of uterine contractile activity during childbirth.

As a result of the study, it was found that the risk factor for labor weakness is the age of the woman in labor under 25 years. The study revealed that more often obstetric rupture of the cervix was experienced by women in labor with weakness in the age group up to 30 years. It was also determined that there were no statistically significant differences in the method of delivery, indications for cesarean section in women with labor weakness in different age cohorts.
