The quality of obstetrical care in maternity hospitals in most developing countries is a problem in improving the health of mothers and newborns. The maternity hospital at the Kokolo central military hospital in Kinshasa is no exception to this reality. A prospective survey on participatory observation among the midwives of the said maternity during the follow-up of labor of delivery of 50 parturients. The results of this study underwent statistical analysis with the 5% F-Snédecor test. Our results show that no midwifery intervention won 100% in its execution (physical preparation, physical examination, follow-up of labor and immediate postpartum). Statistically the difference is significant from the point of view of physical examination, and not significant from the point of view of physical preparation and obstetrical parameters (dilation, uterine revision obliteration and others).

Abstract: (french)
La qualité des soins obstétricaux dans les maternités de la plupart des pays en développement constitue une problématique dans l’amélioration de la santé de la mère et du nouveau-né. La maternité de l’hôpital militaire central Kokolo à Kinshasa ne fait pas exception de cette réalité. Une enquête prospective sur observation participative chez les sages-femmes de ladite maternité durant le suivi de travail d’accouchement de 50 parturientes. Les résultats de cette étude ont subi une analyse statistique avec le test de F-Snédecor à 5 %. Il ressort de nos résultats qu’aucune intervention sage-femme n’a remporté 100 % dans son exécution (préparation physique, examen physique, suivi du travail d’accouchement et post partum immédiat). Statistiquement la différence est significative du point de vue examen physique, et non significative du point de vue préparation physique et paramètres obstétricaux (dilatation, effacement révision utérine et autres).
Author Keywords: qualité, soins, obstétrical, parturiente.
