Maternal obstructive sleep apnea and neonatal birth outcomes in a population based sample.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Evaluate the association of OSA with birth outcomes including the risk of congenital anomalies and the need for a higher level of clinical care at delivery.

Methods

Population-based study that linked newborn records with maternal records. Data from 95 perinatal centers across all geographic census divisions of the U.S. of women with a delivery diagnosis from 2010 to 2014 whose records could be linked to the corresponding newborn record. An International Classification of Diseases, ninth Revision (ICD-9) code for sleep apnea was used to identify exposure and outcome variables. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed with a model that included substance use, obesity, diabetes, maternal co-morbidities, and pregnancy complications.
