title: [Deliveries in foreign women (author's transl)].
abstract: Within four and a half years (between January 1, 1969 and June 30, 1973) there were 6329 deliveries, among them 1217 confinements occurred in foreign women, i.e. proportional 19, 2%. The chi square method was used for the statistical analysis. The incidence of Caesarean Section in foreign women (5, 3%) is significantly higher than in German women (3, 4%). Just so, the incidence of Caesarean Section in wives of foreign workers from Spain and Portugal was significantly higher than in German women; it looks like as if the indication "Pelvic contraction" appears significantly more frequent in parturients of the western part of the mediterranean area than in German women. On the contrary, the indication "fetal distress" is significantly higher in the deliveries of the wives from Greece and Turkey (the eastern part of the mediterranean area). There was no statistical difference in the rate of forceps deliveries and deliveries by vacuum between the German collective (6, 1%) and the foreign collective (7, 5%). Statistically proved, the incidence of the incidence of the indication "fetal distress" in vaginal-operative deliveries of women from Turkey was higher compared to the German collective. Vice versa it turned out that the incidence of the indication "standstill on floor of the pelvis" occurred more often in German parturients than of the collective of Turkey. There was a second statistical method (randomization) to check up if the collectives are comparable; there exists a significant difference between German parturients and women from Turkey: in the German collective are more young and old I.-Parae, in the collective from Turkey you find more Multiparae and more wives in the optimal obstetrical age between 18 and 30 years. The subsequent obstetrical aspects and consequences are discussed. There was no significant difference between foreign and German parturients in further perinatal examinations and parameters.
