[Morbidity among mothers and infants after ambulatory deliveries].
Postpartum early discharge programs are reviewed. Few programs were mandatory and both primi- and multiparae were included. Discharge varied from two to 72 hours after delivery. Nearly all programs had prenatal preparation and all patients had postpartum follow-up at home. Approximately one per cent of the infants were readmitted mostly on account of hyperbilirubinemia and infections, and half as many mothers were readmitted mostly for hemorrhage and endometritis. Infants discharged very early were readmitted more frequently than others. There were no statistical significant difference in mortality or morbidity between mothers or infants in early discharge groups and control groups.
