Abstract

The partograph is a graphic display of the progress of labour, recommended by the World Health Organization, but often underused in practice in low- and middle-income countries. We were interested in going beyond demonstration of potential efficacy - on which the existing literature concentrates - through a systematic review to identify barriers to and incentives for achieving partograph use.
