title: [Deliveries in foreign women (author's transl)].
abstract: The question is to be answered whether the delivery in foreign women has in any case to be valued as riskful birth. The development of deliveries in 1941 foreign women from 1968-1973 is therefore analysed and compared with 9009 deliveries in German women. The share of deliveries in foreign women increased from 3% in 1968 to 32% in 1973. Wifes from Turkey and Jugoslavia are prevailing (68,1% and 19,5%). A significant moving of parity to a higher number of children can be noticed in foreign women. The incidence of operative deliveries in foreign women amounting to 12,5% was 5% lower than in German women. The incidence of sectio amounted to 9.4% in German women and to 7.5% in foreign women. The rate of premature births in foreign women figured up to 9,5% surpassed the rate of premature births in German women by 1%. The comparison of uncleared as well as of cleared perinatal mortality did not show any statistically significant difference. Merely the mortality of sectio-children amounting to 6.9% was significantly higher in foreign women than in German women with 3.7% - owing to the accumulation of vital indications in caesarean sections. Authors come to the conclusion that based on their material examined deliveries in foreign women cannot be juged as riskful births. Particularities in foreign deliveries are specially indicated.
