Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Incidence of neonatal outcome 1. meconium aspiration syndrome 2. birth asphyxia 3. NICU admissions 4. Neontal mortality Maternal outcome such as-puerperal complicationsTimepoint: Patients will be monitored during the process of labour. They will be monitored at admission in labour- if membranes have ruptured. if membranes are intact-they will be reassessed when membranes rupture-spontaneously or artificially. Routine check-on subsequent PV examinations- every 4 hourly in active labour or early if indicated. Fetal outcome-will be monitored at birth, first hour post delivery, first 24 hours to check for respiratory distress and finally before discharge.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Identification of maternal factors associated with MSL 1. Maternal age 2. Parity 3. Gestational age at delivery 4 Duration of labour 5. Postdatism 6. Oligohydramnios 7. IUGR 8. Induction of labour Timepoint: these factors will be assessed antenatally-noted 1 hour after admission.
