[Experience in labor and delivery care in university centers]

Some considerations about an individual experience of labour and delivery care by means of three different partograms at the university departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Genova, Trieste and Verona are reported. The value of partography in management of labour was stressed in connection with a better delivery care, with a systematic recording of cervicometric data and fetal maternal monitoring and in the prevention of the use of unsuitable medical and surgical treatments. The partogram is also essential for the correct communication and makes both tracking and data filing easier. By means of partography the return concept of personalized care of woman in labour is possible without that safety and technology of new obstetrics are lost.
