Comparison of obstetric and neonatal outcomes between Syrian adolescent refugees and local Turkish adolescent citizens
The provision of antenatal care in adolescents in refugee populations presents particular difficulties because of conflict, nutritional deficiencies, language barriers and lack of access to health care facilities. Due to the absence of prenatal care, associated medical complications can occur. A total of 525 adolescent women who gave birth to singletons agreed to participate in this study. Data about maternal demographic and obstetric characteristics, as well as neonatal outcomes were analysed. In conclusion, adolescent pregnancy continues to be an important social problem due to health support needs. However, the results of our present study are important in terms of showing that perinatal care is quietly improving in Turkey.Impact StatementWhat is already known on this subject? Adolescent pregnancies are at much higher risk than adult pregnancies in terms of complications. These complications include preterm delivery, intrauterine growth retardation, maternal morbidity and mortality, neonatal morbidity and mortality. According to various beliefs and traditions, marriages in early ages are observed in some societies and as a result, adolescents become pregnant. Additionally, the present study includes early adolescent aged pregnancies as 14,15 and 16. As far as we search in the literature, there is no reported about early adolescent pregnancies.What do the results of this study add? Often, such pregnancies occur more frequently in societies with low socioeconomic levels. For this reason routine pregnancy screening, support during pregnancy, prenatal care is not adequately provided. Some of the complications develop on them. Primarily, the adolescent pregnancies should be gotten under control, if not, some complications can be prevented by routine pregnancy follow-up and adequate provision of prenatal care and support.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research? As a guide on clinical practices and further studies; an effective method of contraception should be applied to sexually active women at early maternal age. If not, pregnancies should be kept under close follow-up and with adequate support to avoid complications.
