Abstract

Single-room maternity care is an attractive delivery system to obstetricians and consumers. We reviewed the first 15 months' experience in a committed labor-delivery-recovery room unit where all patients were admitted for single-room care regardless of risk. The rate of transfer to a traditional delivery room for vaginal delivery was 3.8%.
