چکیده انگلیسی


• Comparative differences exist between women based on birth setting.
• Women with private health insurance are more likely to birth in a labour ward.
• Women who birth in a birth centre have a higher rate of university education.
• Women who birth at home have a lower rate of permanent employment.
• Types of intrapartum analgesics used differed based upon birth setting.

ObjectivesA woman's choice of birth setting can depend on a variety of factors including her preference, availability of services and legislative environment. However, examination of the characteristics of women in relation to their birth environment has been limited in scope and design. This study presents the comparative characteristics of women who birth at home, in a birth centre or in a standard hospital setting.MethodsCross-sectional survey of women (n = 2445) identified as pregnant or recently given birth in the 2009 survey of the “young” cohort (n = 8012) from the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health.ResultsWomen's birth setting was associated with a variety of factors including employment status, private health insurance, attitudes towards obstetric care, health status, use of intrapartum pain management, and adverse birth events.ConclusionWomen's choice of birth setting may be affected by factors such as government and institutional policy, personal values, and economic situation. The confluence of these factors for individual women can impact on the birth settings available to women and the corresponding choices they make. A clear understanding of these factors is important to ensure women access the most appropriate birth environment to achieve the best maternal and foetal health outcomes.
