ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine the proportion and factors associated with home delivery
in Peru.
Materials and Methods: Observational, cross-sectional, analytical and quantitative
study carried out in clusters of households distributed in Departmental capitals,
urban cities and rural settings in Peru. A secondary database from the 2019 Peruvian
Demographic and Family Health Survey (ENDES) was used. This design was chosen
because outcome (home delivery) and exposure (factors) were assessed simultaneously
during data collection.
Results: Of the 18401 records analyzed, it was estimated that 5.39% (95%CI: 4.83-
6.03%) of women in Peru had home births; however, the proportion reached 19.59%
(95%CI: 17.26-22.17%) in rural areas and 17.85% (95%CI: 15.21-20.84%) in the
Peruvian jungle.
Conclusions: The proportion of home births in Peru during 2019 was 5.39%;
likewise, determinants favoring the occurrence of home births were identified, such
as residing in the Peruvian highlands or jungle, in a rural area, having less than six
prenatal care, being poor or very poor, having studies or only having attained primary
education and, finally, having 2 or 3 children.
