Study Notes

Partogram or Partograph

  • A partogram or partograph is a graphical record of the progress of labor, used to monitor and assess the progress of labor and fetal well-being.

Fetal Heart Rate Recording

  • The fetal heart rate is recorded on the partogram at an interval of every 15-30 minutes.

Development of Partograph

  • The first partograph was developed by Philpott in 1972.

Blood Pressure Measurements

  • The patient's blood pressure measurements are recorded on the partogram at an interval of every 30-60 minutes.

State of Membranes and Colour of Liquor

  • 'I' on the partogram signifies that the membranes are intact, while a 'R' signifies that they are ruptured, and the colour of the liquor is also recorded alongside.
