A pictorial card was devised for illiterate traditional birth attendants to record the important events during pregnancy, childbirth and the neonatal period. Between Oct. 1979 and July 1980, traditional birth attendants from 15 villages completed 88 pictorial records. The card has served successfully as a prompting device to ensure continuing maternal and newborn care.
