%X Introduction: In Africa, care during childbirth depends on routine practices to the detriment of quality. The aim of this study was to assess the quality of delivery care at the Coronthie CMC. Methods: The study was carried out at the Coronthie Community Medical Center. It was a cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study lasting 6 months, from July 01 to December 31, 2021. Parturients whose term was ≥28 SA and who agreed to participate in the study were included. Excluded were those with a term < 28 SA, or who refused to participate. Data were entered, analyzed and presented using Word, A Epi Info 7.2.2.6 software. Results: The frequency of quality care is 36.7%. The average age of parturients was 28.6 ± 5 years. Most parturients (89.7%) were married women with secondary education (35%) and self-employed (32%). Pauciparous women accounted for 43.80%, and most parturients (59.8%) were delivered by Caesarean section. We found that 21.5% of parturients had developed complications. These complications were perineal trauma and post-partum haemorrhage. There were no maternal deaths, and the neonatal mortality rate was 20/1000 NV. Acute fetal distress was the main cause of perinatal death. Conclusion: Correct management of factors influencing childbirth could improve maternal and neonatal prognosis.
