Resumen
Se realizó un trabajo de investigación tomando como muestra 100 pacientes cuyos partos se dieron durante el año 2013 en el Hospital Universitario en la ciudad de Guayaquil en Ecuador. Estas pacientes fueron seleccionadas de forma aleatoria. Se utilizaron dos grupos de estudio: el de las mujeres que tuvieron partos pretérmino y el de aquellas cuyo parto fue a término. El propósito de este estudio fue determinar cuántos controles prenatales se realizó cada paciente de cada grupo de estudio y de esta manera establecer si en los partos pretérmino se realizaron menor o mayor cantidad de controles. Se encontró que hubo mujeres con un alto número de controles, en quienes se presentó un parto prematuro, así como también mujeres con pocos controles prenatales y que aun así llevaron su embarazo a término. Sin embargo, se observó que la media de controles prenatales era más baja para los partos prematuros que para los partos a término. Se concluyó que el número de controles prenatales influye en el parto prematuro.

This research was conducted using a sample of 100 patients whose deliveries occurred in 2013 at the University Hospital in the city of Guayaquil in Ecuador. These patients were selected randomly. Two study groups were used: the women who had preterm deliveries and those whose delivery was at term. The purpose of this study was to determine how many prenatal visits each patient in the study group had, and thus establish whether in preterm deliveries smaller or larger number of controls was performed. It was found that some women had a high number of controls, in whom preterm delivery is provided, as well as some women with few prenatal visits who still carried the pregnancy to term. However, it was observed that the average of prenatal controls were lower for preterm births rather than for term deliveries. It was concluded that the number of prenatal visits influences preterm birth.
