Objective.
The objective of the study was to examine the pattern of low birth weight LBW, maternal complications, and its related factors among Arab women in Qatar.
Design.
This is a prospective hospital-based study.
Setting.
The study was carried out in Women’s Hospital, Doha.
Subjects and Methods.
Pregnant women in their third trimester were identified in the log book of Women’s Hospital and recruited into the study during first week of January 2010 to July 2011.
Only 1674 (out of 2238) Arab women (74.7%) consented to participate in this study.
Data on clinical and biochemistry parameters were retrieved from medical records.
Follow-up data on neonatal outcome was obtained from labor room register.
Results.
The incidence of LBW (<2500 g) was 6.7% among Arab women during 2010 in Qatar.
Distribution of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), antepartum hemorrhage (APH), maternal anemia, premature rupture of membrane (PROM), maternal occupation, parity, sheesha smoking, and parental consanguinity were significantly different (P<0.05) between mothers of LBW and normal birth weight NBW (≥2500 g) babies.
Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that previous LBW, consanguinity, parity, smoking shesha, GDM, APH, anemia, PROM, maternal occupation, and housing condition were significantly associated with LBW adjusting for gestational age.
Conclusion.
Maternal complications such as GDM, APH, anemia, PROM, and smoking shesha during pregnancy are significantly increasing the risk of LBW outcome.
Screening and prompt treatment for maternal complications and health education for smoking cessation during routine antenatal visits will help in substantial reduction of LBW outcome.
