چکیده

مقدمه: مطالعات حاکی از این است که مهمترین عامل محدودکننده باروری و حاصل تولید مثلی سالم با وجود یک زوج مسن تر، سن زنان است. اما این سوال برانگیخته می شود که تا چه حد سن پدر بر دوره بارداری و بیش از همه بر سلامت نوزاد تاثیر می‌گذارد. لذا هدف از مطالعه حاضر تعیین رابطه بین سن پدر با پیامدهای باروری بود.مواد و روش: این پژوهش از نوع کوهورت گذشته‌نگر بود که با هدف کاربردی در شهر زاهدان در سال 1395 انجام گرفت. جامعه آماری شامل پرونده 3000 کودک زیر یک سال شهر زاهدان بود که از مراکز بهداشتی درمانی مختلف شهری انتخاب شدند. داده‌ها با استفاده از چک لیست استاندارد جمع‌آوری شدند. برای تحلیل داده ها از نرم افزار SPSS ، آمار توصیفی و آزمون کای-اسکوئر استفاده شد.یافته‌ها : اکثر پدران در محدوده سنی 20 تا 40 سال قرار داشتند. اکثریت خانواده‌های مورد مطالعه دارای یک فرزند بوده و اکثر کودکان مورد بررسی فرزند اول خانواده بودند. نتایج مطالعه، حاکی از ارتباط بین سن پدر و جنسیت نوزاد (017/0P = )، وزن هنگام تولد نوزاد (031/0P = )، نوع زایمان مادر (001/0P = ) و زمان زایمان (013/0P =) بود.بحث و نتیجه گیری: با افزایش سن پدر احتمال بروز عوامل خطر از جمله زایمان زودرس و انجام سزارین وجود داشت. فرزند‌آوری در سنین جوانی احتمال تولد نوزاد سالم را بیشتر می‌کند. پیشنهاد می‌شود جهت کاهش زایمان‌های زودرس و پرخطر و کاهش هزینه‌های خانوارها و نظام سلامت فرزندآوری خانواده‌ها بیشتر در سنین جوانی والدین انجام گردد.

چکیده [English]

Background: Studies show that the most important limiting factor for fertility and a healthy reproduction with an older couple is women’s age. But the question is that to what extent will the father's age affect pregnancy and infant health? The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between paternal ages with reproductive outcomes.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted in Zahedan in 2017. The study population included 3,000 children under one year of age who were selected from urban health centers of Zahedan. Data were collected using a standard checklist. SPSS software, descriptive statistics, chi-square test, and logistic regression were used for data analysis.
Results: Most fathers were 20 to 40 years old. The majority of the studied families had one child and most children examined were the first child. The results showed an association between paternal age and the sex of the baby (P=0.017), birth weight (P 0.031P =), type of delivery (P= 0.001) and delivery time (P=0.013).
Conclusion: With increasing paternal age, there is the possibility of developing risk factors such as early delivery and cesarean section. Childbearing at a young age increases the likelihood of having a healthy baby.  In order to reduce early and high risk pregnancies and household costs, and health systems, it is suggested that the childbearing of family take place when parents are younger.
