Brief Summary
The partograph serves as "early warning system" and it has shown to be effective in preventing prolonged labour, in reducing operative interventions and in improving the neonatal outcome. "A picture is worth a thousand words". A partograph review if well recorded provides rapid and comprehensive information about progress of labour when compared with a review of detailed handwritten case sheets. Partograph is a Latin/Greek hybrid word synonymous with parturition recorded in a graphic form.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Mode of Delivery
The mode of delivery was assessed by the condition of the mother and the fetus by BISHOP score (The Bishop score is a cervical assessment system used to predict the success of labor induction. This scoring system evaluates several clinical parameters of the cervix, including dilation, effacement, position, consistency, and the fetal head's station in the pelvis).
24 hours
Study Arms (3)
Group A: Uncomplicated Normal Labour
ACTIVE COMPARATORAbout 140 prime gravidae females delivered before or at alert line
Group B: Complicated Normal Labour
ACTIVE COMPARATORAbout 40 prime gravidae females delivered between alert and action line
Group C: Cesarean Section Labour
ACTIVE COMPARATORAbout 20 prime gravidae females delivered after action line
