METHODS
A retrospective criterion-based audit was conducted from case files of
labouring women at Taiz Houbane MCH Hospital
in the last month with extreme
number of deliveries (August 2017, 1014 labouring women) and the first
month where the restriction policy was fully implemented (November 2017,
428 labouring women). Hence, before and after a doubling in
provider-to-labouring women ratio.
