abstract: 'Background: Rising rates of labor induction and cesarean delivery,
especially when used without a medical reason, have generated concern
among clinicians, women, and policymakers. Whether employment status
affects pregnant women''s childbirth-related care is not known. We
estimated the relationship between prenatal employment and obstetric
procedures, distinguishing whether women reported that the induction or
cesarean was performed for medical reasons.
Methods: Using data from a nationally representative sample of women who
gave birth in U. S. hospitals (n = 1,573), we used propensity score
matching to reduce potential bias from nonrandom selection into
employment. Outcomes were cesarean delivery and labor induction, with
and without a self-reported medical reason. Exposure was prenatal
employment status (full-time employment, not employed). We conducted
separate analyses for unmatched and matched cohorts using multivariable
regression models.
Findings: There were no differences in labor induction based on
employment status. In unmatched analyses, employed women had higher odds
of cesarean delivery overall (adjusted odds ratio {[}AOR], 1.45; p =
.046) and cesarean delivery without medical reason (AOR, 1.94; p =
.024). Adding an interaction term between employment and college
education revealed no effects on cesarean delivery without medical
reason. There were no differences in cesarean delivery by employment
status in the propensity score-matched analysis.
Conclusions: Full-time prenatal employment is associated with higher
odds of cesarean delivery, but this association was not explained by
socioeconomic status and no longer existed after accounting for
sociodemographic differences by matching women employed full time with
similar women not employed during pregnancy. Copyright (C) 2014 by the
