THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN MATERNAL BLOOD LEAD LEVELS AND PRETERM BIRTH

Pages

  19-24

Abstract

 Background and purpose: PRETERM BIRTH is defined as birth before 37 weeks’ gestation and is a major cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity. The present study was done to determine the association between BLOOD LEAD LEVEL in pregnant women and preterm delivery.Materials and methods: A longitudinal prospective study was performed on 1033 pregnant women referring to prenatal centers in Tehran from May 2010 to September 2011. All women’s gestational age was 14-20 weeks. Reproductive-demographic questionnaire was completed for data collection. Meanwhile, blood samples were taken to determine the lead levels. BLOOD LEAD LEVEL analysis was done by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry method.Results: The mean age of mothers was 26.7±4.4 years of whom more were primiparous (53.3%) with normal BMI (51.1%). The incidence of PRETERM BIRTH was 7% and the mean of BLOOD LEAD LEVEL was 4.7±4.9 mg/dl. Statistical analysis did not show any significant correlation between BLOOD LEAD LEVEL and PRETERM BIRTH (P=0.7).Conclusion: The mean of BLOOD LEAD LEVELs in present study was in normal range (<10 mg/dl). The results of this study indicated that BLOOD LEAD LEVEL in normal range has no effect on PRETERM BIRTH.
