Objective To comparative delivery mode and perinatal outcomes in obese women compared with those with normal weight. Methods A cross sectional survey of all deliveries in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital from January 1 to December 31, 2011 was evaluated for demographic data and delivery outcomes. Results In this analysis of 12 190 pregnancies, 2263 (18.6%) were complicated by obesity. Compared with those with normal weight and overweight, the risks of hypertension disorder complicating pregnancy, gestational diabetes mellitus, malpresentation,and macrosomia increased significantly in obese women.The cesarean section rate was higher significantly in obese women than in women with normal weight and overweight, especially performed for maternal request, failure for progress, macrosomia, previous surgery (P<0.05). Conclusions The perinatal complications are significantly higher in obese women than in those with normal weight.
