Background: the appropriate and planned medical attention to the preconceptional risk may avoid health problems or mortality, both in the mother and the child.
Objective: to describe the women with preconceptional reproductive risk, belonging to two doctor’s offices of the “Mártires de Manatí” Hospital-based Polyclinic, from December 2016 to July 2017.
Methods: a cross-sectional, descriptive and observational study was carried out at the aforementioned place and during the period herein declared. The universe was made up of 392 fertile women and the sample included the 88 women identified with preconceptional risk. The following variables were used: age, main risk factors and contraceptive methods mostly used. Descriptive statistics was applied for the data analysis.
Results: the highest prevailing risk factor was the age older than 35 years, in 24,4 % of the cases, followed by unfavorable obstetric histories (20,4 %). The intrauterine devices (47,05 %) and the pills (20,05 %) prevailed within the contraceptives used. 77,27 % of the women were under control. In the cases with preconceptional risk there was an evident direct relation with the obstetric and perinatal risk, being low birth weight (13,6 %), toxemia (11,1 %), respiratory distress (8,5 %) and acute fetal suffering (3,5 %) the most frequent ones.
Conclusions: values of interest were described in the sample of women with preconceptional risk. The study also identified other women with this type of risk that were not recorded.
