Late motherhood is associated with pre-existing disorders that inevitably increase with age, with pathologies such as hypertension, prematurity, low birth weight, congenital malformations, among others. They significantly affect perinatal maternal morbidity and mortality, which favor complications in childbirth and increase surgical interventions. Objective To determine the maternal and perinatal complications in elderly pregnant women treated at the Regional Hospital of Loreto, January to June 2022. Methodology The present investigation was of a non-experimental quantitative type, with a descriptive, cross-sectional and retrospective design; with a population made up of 269 elderly pregnant women and a sample of 159 elderly pregnant women who met the selection criteria. Results In the sociodemographic characteristics, 63.5% were between the ages of 35 and 39, followed by 86.2% who were cohabitants, with urban origin in 68.6% and secondary studies in 61.6% of the study sample; followed by obstetric characteristics, 43.4% were multiparous, with term pregnancy in 72.3%, controlled in 69.8%, and a greater prevalence of cesarean deliveries in 64.2%. Among the main maternal complications were; Preeclampsia (30.8%), urinary tract infection (12.6%), threatened premature labor (6.9%), anemia (5.7%) and eclampsia (1.9%), however, 5.0% did not present complications; The main perinatal complications were; low birth weight (17.0%), prematurity (9.4%) and stillbirth (7.5%), however, 66.0% did not present complications. Conclusion Maternal complications were significantly related to parity (0.025). Perinatal complications were statistically related to age (0.011), marital status (0.001) as well as a highly significant relationship with origin xiv (0.000), parity (0.000), gestational age (0.000) and prenatal care (0.000).
