Risco de morbidade no primeiro ano de vida em filhos de mÃes adolescentes de baixa renda / Risk of morbidity in the first year of life in children of teenage mothers from low income

Marilia Joffily Pereira da Costa Parahyba 26 September 2002 (has links)
IntroduÃÃo: A literatura à ampla no conhecimento das repercussÃes imediatas da maternidade na adolescÃncia, tanto para as mulheres como para os filhos. Entretanto, ainda nÃo estÃo muito claros, os efeitos, em mÃdio e longo prazo, sobre as crianÃas, de uma maternidade, entre mÃes adolescentes de baixa renda. O primeiro ano de vida, perÃodo mais vulnerÃvel aos agravos de qualquer natureza, parece ser a fase mais crÃtica para os efeitos desta condiÃÃo. Objetivos: Verificar que fatores ou condiÃÃes poderiam determinar maior risco de morbidade em crianÃas com menos de um ano, de mÃes adolescentes. Metodologia: Estudo transversal, desenvolvido entre marÃo de 2001 e marÃo de 2002, no NÃcleo de AtenÃÃo Medica Integrada, UNIFOR e no Hospital Infantil Albert Sabin. As variÃveis do estudo contemplam as mÃes e as crianÃas abordando aspectos comportamentais, sociais, econÃmicos, demogrÃficos e biolÃgicos. Resultados: Foram estudadas 296 mÃes com idades entre 14 e 19 anos e seus filhos menores de 12 meses, matriculados nos referidos serviÃos. A mÃdia de escolaridade das mÃes foi de 6,5 anos e 8,1% exerciam atividade trabalhista remunerada. NÃo houve associaÃÃo significativa entre doenÃa nas crianÃas e escolaridade da mÃe (p>0,05). A renda familiar foi de 01SM, em 75,5% dos casos. Um nÃmero significativo de mÃes (65,2%) preferia ter esperado mais tempo para engravidar e 19,5% tentaram o aborto. NÃo houve associaÃÃo significativa entre doenÃa nas crianÃas e essas variÃveis estudadas. Das mÃes com atà 16 anos, 17,7% tiveram filhos com PN igual ou menor que 2500g e das maiores de 16, 13,0% tambÃm os tiveram (p>0,05). Analisadas isoladamente, mÃes mais jovens geraram filhos com peso menor que mÃes mais velhas, apesar de nÃo ser baixo peso (p<0,05). Quase 60,0% das mÃes, cuidam sozinhas das crianÃas. As mais velhas (>16 anos) cuidam mais que as mais jovens (14-16 anos) (p<0,05) e as solteiras cuidam menos que as casadas 9 (p<0,05). As que recebem ajuda financeira cuidam mais sozinhas do que as que nÃo a recebem (p<0,05). NÃo houve associaÃÃo entre doenÃa e cuidados infantis (p>0,05). A idade mÃdia das crianÃas foi de 3,5 meses e 99,2% tinham CartÃo da CrianÃa. Foi considerada boa a cobertura vacinal. A duraÃÃo mÃdia do aleitamento exclusivo foi de 117 dias e 180 dias para alimentaÃÃo mista. VÃ-se associaÃÃo estatisticamente significativa entre nÃo mamar e adoecer (p<0,05). As doenÃas mais freqÃentes foram as IRAs (44,8%), as afecÃÃes cutÃneas (21,1%) e as diarrÃias (18,2%). O desejo ou nÃo da mÃe engravidar nÃo influenciou na morbidade das crianÃas (p>0,05). O tempo gestacional, vitalidade e peso, ao nascer, nÃo mostraram associaÃÃo com doenÃa nas crianÃas. ConclusÃo: O fator determinante para doenÃa nas crianÃas foi o menor tempo de amamentaÃÃo. RecomendaÃÃo: Os resultados do estudo mostram que mÃes adolescentes devem receber orientaÃÃes sobre o manejo de doenÃas da infÃncia, crescimento e desenvolvimento normal das crianÃas, alÃm de se intensificar a proposta de orientaÃÃo continuada para prevenir a gestaÃÃo. / Introduction: The immediate repercussions of a teenage motherhood, both on the women and their children, are widely addressed in the literature. However, it is not clear which are the medium and long-term effects the teenage and low income status of the mothers have on their offspring. The first year of life, the most vulnerable period in life to aggressions of any kind, seems to be the most critical stage for the effects of such conditions to appear. Objective: Verify which factors or conditions could determine a higher morbidity risk in children under one year of age. Methodology: Transversal-type study, carried out between March 2001 and March 2002 at the Integrated Medical Care Center (NÃcleo de AtenÃÃo MÃdica Integrada), Fortaleza University, and at the Albert Sabin Hospital for Children (Hospital Infantil Albert Sabin - HIAS). The study variables contemplate the mothers and children approaching behaviors, social, economics, demographic and biological aspects. Results: 296 mothers were studied, with ages ranging between 14-19 years, and their not older than one year children, all of them registered at the above mentioned healthcare services. The mothersâ average school-attending time was 6,5 years, and 8,1% of them performed a remunerated activity. There was no significant association between child disease and the motherâs literacy level (p>0,05). The familyâs income was one minimum wage in 75,5% of the cases. An important number of mothers (65,2%) would have preferred to wait longer before getting pregnant, and 19,5% of them tried an abortion. There was no significant association between child disease and these variables. Of the mothers under 16, 17,7% newborn weight were equal or less than 2500g, as from the more than 16, 13,0% newborn weight was the same (p>0,05). Separately, youngest mothers procreated newborn weight lower than oldest mothers (p<0,05). Almost 60,0% of the women do take care of their children. The oldest take care more than the youngest (p<0,05) and 11 the single less than the married (p<0,05). Women that accept financial help take care more than that ones who do not accept (p<0,05). There was no significant association between child care and disease (p>0,05). The average age of the children was 3,5 months, and 99,2% of them had Child Card (CartÃo da CrianÃa). It was good the vaccination status. The average breast-feeding period was 117 days for exclusive breast-feeding, and 180 days for a mixed feeding. A statistically significant association was found between the breast-feeding period and the occurrence of child diseases (p<0,05). The most common pathologies were the IRAs (44,8%), skin affections (21,1%), and diarrhea (18,2%). The incidence of child morbidity was not influenced by the desire, or lack of desire, of the mother to get pregnant (p>0,05). The gestational age at birth, the newbornâs vitality and birth weight did not show to be significant parameters affecting child morbidity. Conclusion: The main factor for childrenâs sickness was the short period of breast-feeding. Recommendation: The results of the study suggests that teenage mothers should be oriented about how to manage child diseases, and be given information regarding the normal growth and development of their children as well to prevent new pregnancy
