Plotting a partographPlotting a partograph
Labor• Begin plotting in active labor• Cervical dilatation > 4 cms• Repeat P/V after 4 hours and plot the cervical dilatation
Progress of Labor
ALERT and ACTION linesALERT and ACTION lines
• Alert line: A line starts at 4 cm of cervical dilatation to the point of expected full dilatation at the rate of 1 cm per hour.
• Moving to the right or the alert line may require referral to hospital for extra vigilance
• Action line: Parallel and 4 hours to the right of the alert line. A lag time of 4 hours between a slowing of labour and the need for intervention.
• When Action line is reached this is the critical line at which specific management decisions must be made
Note that the first plot Note that the first plot on the partograph on the partograph
starts on the Alert Linestarts on the Alert Line

• At lower level facility, the women must be transferred to At lower level facility, the women must be transferred to a higher level facility which can do a cesarean section, a higher level facility which can do a cesarean section, unless the cervix is almost fully dilatedunless the cervix is almost fully dilated
• Continue routine observations but prepare for transfer if Continue routine observations but prepare for transfer if neededneeded
• ARM may be performed if membranes are still intactARM may be performed if membranes are still intact
Crossing the Action line
• Crossing of the Action line (the plotting moves to the right of the Action line) : indicates the need for intervention
• By the time the action line is crossed the woman should ideally have reached the FRU for the appropriate intervention to take place
At or beyond action line:InterventionAt or beyond action line:Intervention
