Subject mother-infant dyads were identified from linked birth certificate and maternal and newborn hospital claims data. Women with an International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) diagnosis code (493) for asthma (n = 2,289) were compared with a fourfold larger randomly selected control sample (n = 9,156) from the remaining pool of women. After controlling for the effects of important confounding variables, maternal asthma was associated with the following adverse infant outcomes: preterm infant (odds ratio [OR] = 1.36; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.18 to 1.55), low birth weight (OR = 1.32; 95% CI, 1.10 to 1.58), small-for-gestational age (OR = 1.26; 95% CI, 1.10 to 1.45), congenital anomalies (OR = 1.37; 95% CI, 1.12 to 1.68), and increased infant hospital length of stay (OR = 1.44; 95% CI, 1.25 to 1.65). The adverse maternal outcomes associated with maternal asthma were: pre-eclampsia (OR = 2.18; 95% CI, 1.68 to 2.83), placenta previa (OR = 1.71; 95% CI, 1.05 to 2.79), cesarean delivery (OR = 1.62; 95% CI, 1.46 to 1.80), and increased maternal hospital length of stay (OR = 1.86; 95% CI, 1.60 to 2.15). The results emphasize the need for maternal asthma to be added to the list of conditions that increase the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1164\/ajrccm.158.4.9802053","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,4]],"date-time":"2013-04-04T13:47:41Z","timestamp":1365083261000},"page":"1091-1095","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":226,"title":["Infant and Maternal Outcomes in the Pregnancies of Asthmatic Women"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"158","author":[{"given":"KITAW","family":"DEMISSIE","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Family Medicine, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey\u2013Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, New Brunswick; and Department of Environmental and Community Medicine, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey\u2013Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, Piscataway, New Jersey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"MARY B.","family":"BRECKENRIDGE","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Family Medicine, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey\u2013Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, New Brunswick; and Department of Environmental and Community Medicine, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey\u2013Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, Piscataway, New Jersey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"GEORGE G.","family":"RHOADS","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Family Medicine, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey\u2013Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, New Brunswick; and Department of Environmental and Community Medicine, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey\u2013Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, Piscataway, New Jersey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1998,10,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026032709041454700_B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1161","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.1979.03290370063036","article-title":"Asthma and pregnancy.","volume":"241","author":"Weinstein","year":"1979","journal-title":"J.A.M.A."},{"key":"2026032709041454700_B2","first-page":"1170","article-title":"Perinatal outcomes in the pregnancies of asthmatic women: a prospective controlled analysis.","volume":"151","author":"Schatz","year":"1995","journal-title":"Am.
