What is elder childbearing?

Elderly childbearing refers to the phenomenon that women are pregnant and have babies when they are over 35 years old. With the social and economic progress and the improvement of people's living standards, more and more women choose to marry later and have children later, delaying the birth plan to a more mature age. However, the elderly birth also brings a series of health risks and medical challenges. In order to explore the proportion of elderly childbearing in hospital, it needs to be analyzed from many aspects.

The proportion of hospital admissions is related to the frequency of elderly childbearing

First of all, the elderly birth frequency is one of the important factors that affect the proportion of inpatients. In China, about 30% of couples choose late childbearing, especially white-collar workers in big cities. Due to the increase of age, these elderly mothers need more medical intervention during pregnancy and childbirth, so the proportion of hospitalization will be relatively high.

Secondly, the elderly childbirth itself brings health risks, which requires more medical security. On the one hand, higher age means higher risk of disease, such as diabetes, hypertension, etc. On the other hand, the physical resistance and recovery ability of elderly mothers are poor, and cesarean section and other operations may be required during delivery. These factors will increase the need for hospitalization.

In addition, the society's attention and attention to the elderly mothers are also increasing. Many hospitals specially set up elderly obstetrics department to provide personalized medical services for elderly mothers, so as to bring them a safer and more comfortable delivery environment. This has further increased the proportion of hospitalized elderly women.

The proportion of elderly births in real hospitals

Taking a famous Grade III Grade A hospital in a city as an example, the statistics show that the proportion of elderly births in the hospital is about 15%. This proportion is calculated by dividing the number of days of hospitalization of all elderly women in medical records by the total number of births. In this top three hospital, about 1000 elderly women are admitted to hospital every year to give birth, and about 150 of them need to be hospitalized.

This proportion may be affected by several factors. First of all, the hospital's own scientific research and teaching ability is strong, attracting more elderly mothers to come to see a doctor. Secondly, the city's economic strength is relatively strong, and the elderly mothers are more likely to get better medical resources, thus increasing the proportion of hospitalized women.

In addition, the hospital is more active in medical intervention for elderly mothers. For example, more frequent and detailed inspections may be carried out for elderly mothers after admission, and more personalized delivery room equipment and professional prenatal guidance will be provided. These factors will increase the hospitalization needs of elderly mothers.

summary

The proportion of hospitalized elderly childbearing is related to multiple factors. The elderly childbearing frequency, maternal health risks, social concerns and hospital professional level will all have an impact on the proportion of inpatients. Taking a famous Grade III Grade A hospital in a city as an example, the proportion of hospitalized elderly births is about 15%. This proportion reflects the medical needs of the elderly women during childbirth and the professional services provided by the hospital.
