Abstract

Background: Labour progress in partograph plotting helps to early recognition and prevention of the complication of labour. This helpful in better maternal and perinatal outcome. Aim of the study is to evaluate the maternal and perinatal outcome in primigravida and multigravida by comparing their partograph in labour.Material And Methods: This prospective observational study was carried out in Smt. SCL General Hospital a teaching tertiary care hospital from May-2018 to November-2019. Total 250 cases out of which 125 cases of primigravida and 125 cases of multigravida admitted in labour room were randomly selected and monitored by using modified WHO partograph. All the cases reporting to labour room and fulfilled the inclusion criteria were included in this study. Individual partograph was studied to know the various aspect of course of labour. Result: 208 out of 250 cases were before alert line, 34 cases were between alert and action line and 8 cases were beyond action line. Rate of cervical dilatation in most primigravida was between 1.1-2cm/hour and in multigravida was >2.1cm/hour. In Zone A, in primigravida 90.7% had VD and 9.3% had LSCS whereas in multigravida 96.4% had VD and 3.6% had LSCS. In Zone B, in primigravida 47.8% had vaginal delivery and 52.2% had LSCS whereas in multigravida 54.4% had VD and 45.5% LSCS. In Zone C, in primigravida and multigravida there were no VD and 100% had LSCS. Protracted active phase (50%) was presents the most common abnormality of first stage of labour in both group in present study and in second stage, arrest of decent (82%) was more common. In both groups, NICU admission were more in Zone C (3.2%) as compared to Zone A (2%) and Zone B (1.6%). Conclusion: This study has shown that using the partograph can be highly effective in reducing complications from both mother and neonate.
