Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : Partogram

Explanation:

Partogram

  • The condition of the mother, the condition of the fetus, and the progress of labour are recorded on the partogram.
  • A partogram or partograph is a composite graphical record of key data (maternal and fetal) during labour entered against time on a single sheet of paper.
  • Relevant measurements might include statistics such as cervical dilation, fetal heart rate, duration of labour and vital signs.
  • It is intended to provide an accurate record of the progress in labour so that any delay or deviation from normal may be detected quickly and treated accordingly. 
  • A Cochrane review came to the conclusion that there is insufficient evidence to recommend partographs in standard labour management and care.
