“…Other studies showed similar results, Deka et al 7 found vaginal delivery in 88.5% (Group I) and 85% (Group II). In study by Veena et al 9 this proportion was 79% and 85% in Group I and II respectively and by Akhtar et al 5 it was 93.5% and 94% respectively. There was no statistical significance in the number of normal vaginal deliveries.…”

“…73% patients delivered before the alert line in group I and 69% delivered before alert ETD in group II which as similar to Bhuvaneshwari et al 8 where 77% and 72% delivered before alert line/ETD with no statistical significance. Veena et al 9 showed 76% and 83% patients delivering before alert ETD/line in group I and group II respectively. Akhtar et al 5 observed the highest rate of normal progression of labour with 88.5% (Group I) and 87.5% (Group II) delivering before the expected time.…”

Early detection of abnormal progress of labour and prevention of prolonged labour significantly improves pregnancy outcomes. Partograph is a simple and important tool which can provide a continuous pictorial overview of labour on a single sheet of paper and is essential to monitor labour. (1) To study the progress of labour using WHO modified partograph in terms of alert line and action line and using paperless partograph in terms of alert and action estimated time of delivery and detect any deviation from normal progress of labour. (2) To evaluate the duration of labour, mode of delivery and perinatal outcome in both the groups.It was a prospective observational study which was conducted over a period of 18months on 200 antenatal patients admitted to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Christian Medical College and Hospital, Ludhiana. Antenatal patients with singleton term pregnancy with cephalic presentation in active phase of labour were included in the study. The WHO modified partograph was plotted for 100 cases (Group I) and the paperless partograph was recorded for the other group of 100 patients (Group II) and their outcomes were compared. The p value <0.05 was considered to be significant.In our study we noted that the findings were similar in the WHO modified partograph group and the paperless partograph group in terms of duration of labour, progress of labour, mode of delivery and neonatal outcomes with no statistically significant difference between both the groups.Our study concluded that the paperless partograph is as good as the WHO modified partograph in predicting the labour outcomes and identifying labour abnormalities. The paperless partograph does not need graphical representation and therefore can be adopted as an alternative to the WHO modified partograph in busy labour room settings.

“…Electronic partographs also result in a significant reduction in the rate of prolonged labor from 42% to 29% and have a far greater usage rate than paper-based partographs [21]. In addition, electronic partographs are preferred over paper-based partographs by clinicians due to their ease of use and less time, improved performance, decreased referral rates, assured prompt referral when necessary, facilitation of reporting obligations, and enhancement of service quality [26,27].…”

Background A partograph is a pictorial representation of the relationship between cervical dilatation and the time used to diagnose prolonged and obstructed labor. However, the utilization of paper-based partograph is low and it is prone to documentation errors, which can be avoided with the use of electronic partographs. There is only limited information on the proportion of intention to use mobile-based partographs and its predictors. Objective The objective of this study was to determine the proportion of obstetric health care providers at public referral hospitals in Oromia, Ethiopia, in 2022 who had the intention to use mobile-based partographs and to determine the predictors of their intention to use mobile-based partographs. Methods We performed an institution-based cross-sectional study from June 1 to July 1, 2022. Census was conducted on 649 participants. A self-administered structured English questionnaire was used, and a 5% pretest was performed. Data were entered into EpiData version 4.6 and exported to SPSS version 25 for descriptive analysis and AMOS (analysis of moment structure; version 23) for structural and measurement model assessment. Descriptive and structural equation modeling analyses were performed. The hypotheses developed based on a modified Technology Acceptance Model were tested using path coefficients and P values <.05. Results About 65.7% (414/630; 95% CI 61.9%-69.4%) of the participants intended to use mobile-based electronic partographs, with a 97% (630/649) response rate. Perceived usefulness had a positive influence on intention to use (β=.184; P=.02) and attitude (β=.521; P=.002). Perceived ease of use had a positive influence on attitude (β=.382; P=.003), perceived usefulness (β=.503; P=.002), and intention to use (β=.369; P=.001). Job relevance had a positive influence on perceived usefulness (β=.408; P=.001) and intention to use (β=.185; P=.008). Attitude positively influenced intention to use (β=.309; P=.002). Subjective norms did not have a significant influence on perceived usefulness (β=.020; P=.61) and intention to use (β=–.066; P=.07). Conclusions Two-thirds of the obstetric health care providers in our study intended to use mobile-based partographs. Perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, job relevance, and attitude positively and significantly influenced their intention to use mobile-based electronic partographs. The development of a user-friendly mobile-based partograph that meets job and user expectations can enhance the intention to use.
