Resumen

Introduction: According to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, Chile has one of the highest caesarean section rates on the continent, reaching 44.7% in 20132 and 47.7% in 20173, ranking third only to Turkey and Mexico. Objective: Analyze the factors related to cesarean section intervention in women who delivered in a private clinic in the Fifth Region of Chile, from 2018 to 2022. Method: Cross-sectional study involving 9,041 users. A logistic regression model with odds ratio and its 95% confidence intervals was used to assess associations with sociodemographic and obstetric factors. Results: The prevalence of cesarean section during the study period was 85.1%. Primiparous status, previous cesarean section, presence of maternal and fetal pathology, absence of labor and surgical sterilization were associated with an increased likelihood of cesarean section, while gestational age 36 and under weeks showed a decreased chance. Conclusions: A high prevalence of cesarean sections stands out for the study period, higher than that reported in the literature.
