Implementation of Evidence-Based Intrapartum Care and its Associated Factors Among Obstetric Care Providers Working in South Ethiopia

Evidence-based intrapartum care practice implementation was low in the study area. Years of work experience, knowledge, in-service training, availability of EBP guidelines, and support from managers were the factors with a significant association with evidence-based intrapartum care practice. Strengthening these enabling factors may help creating an environment that facilitates greater adherence to recommended intrapartum care practices, thereby improving maternal and newborn outcomes.
