Article Synopsis
- WHO recommends the partograph as a low-tech tool for detecting complications during childbirth, but its use in resource-limited settings remains low despite training efforts.
- Proper use of the partograph can significantly improve outcomes for mothers and babies by ensuring that labor is monitored effectively and complications are addressed promptly.
- To improve the use of the partograph, healthcare systems need to create supportive environments through training and addressing the challenges faced by health workers in using this tool.
