| Abstract | High-risk pregnancy is a critical public health concern that increases the likelihood of complications affecting both mother and fetus. Timely identification of contributing factors is essential to ensure effective management, reduce maternal mortality, and improve neonatal outcomes. In India, particularly in the northeastern states, high-risk pregnancies remain prevalent due to various socio-demographic and medical factors. Methodology: Data were collected from 141 high-risk antenatal mothers attending antenatal OPDs of Guwahati Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) and Pratiksha Hospital, Guwahati, Assam. A structured checklist based on the Dutta and Das Prenatal Risk Scoring system was used. Purposive sampling technique was employed, and data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics to assess the association between levels of risk with demographic variables and contributing factors. Result: The study revealed that major contributors to high-risk pregnancy and socio-demographic variables such as age, religion and parity were significantly associated with the levels of risk in pregnancy. Statistical analysis confirmed significant associations between contributing factors like miscarriage, pregnancy induced hypertension, anemia, oedema and IUGR with levels of risk in pregnancy. Conclusion: The findings highlight the urgent need for healthcare providers to provide enhanced routine antenatal screening, targeted health education and timely medical interventions in high-risk populations by addressing both medical and socio-demographic factors. This can significantly help to reduce the complications of high-risk in pregnancy and improve outcomes for both mothers and infants. |
