Abstract :

 Aim: In this study the main aim is to study the outcomes on fetus and the mode of delivery in meconium stained liquor of the patients during labour.

Results: most commonly primigravida with total 140 patients presented, postdate presented at 60 in number. APGAR score of the babies was more than 7 in 160 babies and less than 7 in 40 babies. 120 patients delivered by LSCS, 40 patients delivered normally, 40 patients delivered by instrumental delivery.
