ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Exercise during pregnancy has been proven to reduce the risk of cesarean delivery. However, few studies have examined the relationship between walking or jogging during pregnancy and the success rate of vaginal birth after cesarean delivery (VBAC). This multicenter, retrospective cohort study aimed to determine the association between walking or jogging during pregnancy and the success rate of VBAC in women who underwent a trial of labor after cesarean delivery.METHODS:
The study was conducted between January 2018 and December 2019 in Foshan, China. Univariate and multivariable analyses were performed on demographic and obstetric data collected from the electronic record system.RESULTS:
Of 1080 women included in the final analysis, 80.4% underwent VBAC. In the multivariable analysis, women who walked or jogged ≥200 min/week during pregnancy had a higher likelihood of successful VBAC than women who did not exercise, after adjusting for two sets of confounders Model 1 Adjusted odds ratio (OR), 1.74 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.06-2.85) and model 2 Adjusted OR, 1.83 (95% CI, 1.09-3.06).CONCLUSIONS:
Walking or jogging ≥200 min/week during pregnancy significantly reduces the risk of cesarean delivery among women who undergo a trial of labor after cesarean delivery.Palabras clave
