ABSTRACT
Various factors may contribute
to adverse pregnancy outcomes; either maternal or foetal outcomes.
This study aimed was to determine the association between advanced
maternal age and adverse pregnancy outcomes. This is a cross
sectional study. Data were collected from the birth records
from January 1st 2012 until December 31st 2012 in Muar District.
Descriptive and multiple logistic regression analyses were done
and the results were presented as adjusted odds ratio (aOR)
with p-value
<0.05. The proportion of birth in Muar district, Johor was
14.8% among mothers aged 35 years and older and 85.2% among
mothers aged 20 to 34 years. Advanced maternal age was associated
with pregnancy-induced hypertension (aOR: 5.00; 95%CI: 1.95-12.65),
gestational diabetes mellitus (aOR: 2.32; 95%CI: 1.35-4.00)
and Caesarean section (aOR: 2.21; 95%CI: 1.53-3.19). Anaemia
was negatively associated with advanced maternal age (aOR: 0.50;
95%CI: 0.32-0.78). No significant association was found between
advanced maternal age and adverse foetal outcomes. In view of
the findings, special attention should be paid to the antenatal
mothers aged 35 years and older, even to those without any pre-existing
medical problems.

ABSTRAK
Terdapat banyak faktor yang
menyumbang kepada kesan mudarat kehamilan sama ada terhadap
ibu atau fetus. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan hubungan
antara umur lanjutan maternal dengan kesan mudarat kehamilan.
Kajian ini adalah kajian keratan rentas. Data dikumpulkan daripada
rekod kelahiran yang berdaftar dari 1 Januari 2012 sehingga
31 Disember 2012 di daerah Muar. Analisis deskriptif dan logistik
regresi berganda telah dijalankan dan keputusan dibentangkan
sebagai nisbah ganjil terlaras (aOR) dengan nilai p<0.05. Pecahan jumlah
kelahiran di daerah Muar, Johor adalah 14.8% dalam kalangan
ibu berumur 35 tahun dan ke atas dan 85.2% dalam kalangan ibu
berumur 20-34 tahun. Umur lanjutan maternal dikaitkan dengan
penyakit darah tinggi semasa mengandung (aOR: 5.00; 95%CI: 1.95-12.65),
penyakit kencing manis semasa mengandung (aOR: 2.32; 95%CI:
1.35-4.00) dan pembedahan Caesarean (aOR: 2.21; 95%CI: 1.53-3.19).
Anemia pula berhubungan secara negatif dengan umur lanjutan
maternal (aOR: 0.50; 95%CI: 0.32-0.78). Tiada hubungan yang
signifikan ditemui antara umur lanjutan maternal dan kesan mudarat
kepada fetus. Dengan penemuan ini, perhatian istimewa perlu
diberikan kepada ibu mengandung pada umur 35 tahun dan ke atas
walaupun ibu tersebut tidak mempunyai masalah kesihatan sebelumnya.
Kata kunci: Anemia; kesan mudarat kehamilan; umur maternal
