Sampling : Random sample of 370 participants. Setting: The study was conducted from April 15th , 2016 to September 30 th , 2016 in Women Health Hospital, Assiut University, Egypt, at reception (emergency ) unit. Design method: quesi-experimental design. Study subjects: This study was randomly assign women into 2 groups. Group (1): was allocated to modified WHO partograph and Group (2): was allocated to paperless partograph. Results : Comparison between studied groups as regards time taken for first stage and second stage revealed a statistical significant difference at P. value (<0.017 & <0.001) respectively. For mode of delivery revealed a statistical significant difference at P. value(<0.0152). For postpartum complications revealed a statistical significant difference at P. value(<0.003).Conclusion: The Paperless partograph was effective positively than the WHO modified partograph in the management of labor.
