Pregnancy is a unique, exciting and often joyous time in a woman’s life, as it highlights the woman’s amazing creative and nurturing powers while providing bridge to the future. The growing foetus depends entirely on its mother’s healthy body for all needs. Consequently, pregnant women must take steps to remain as healthy and well-nourished as they possibly can [1]. Maternal health is the health of women during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. Generally, adequate prenatal care encompasses medical care, educational, social, and nutritional services during pregnancy [1]. The present study was aimed to assess the correlation between selected maternal parameters and obstetric outcome among women admitted in antenatal wards for delivery in Amala Institute of Medical Sciences, Thrissur District. The objectives of this study were to assess the selected maternal parameters of women admitted in antenatal wards fordelivery, to assess the obstetric outcome among women after delivery, to  nd the correlation between selected maternal parameters and obstetric outcome, to  nd the association between selected maternal parameters and obstetric outcome, to  nd the association between selected maternal parameters and selected baselinevariables and to  nd the association between obstetric outcome and selected baseline variables. The research approach was quantitative and the research design adopted was descriptive correlational design. One hundred and thirty antenatal women were selected by convenience sampling technique. Data was collected using structured questionnaire to assess the selected baseline variables and data sheet to assess the maternal and neonatal variables. The study was based on Nola J Pender’s Health Promotion Model (HPM). The result showed that there is a positive correlation between parity and birth weight (r = 0.16), period of gestation & gestational age of baby which is signi cant at p < 0.001, period of gestation & birth weight (r = 0.02), BMI & gestational age of baby (r = 0.02) and BMI & birth weight signi cant at p < 0.05 (p = 0.02). There is an association between period of gestation & mode of delivery (p < 0.05), parity& age in years (p < 0.001), period of gestation & age in years (p < 0.05), BMI & economic status of the family (p < 0.05) and mode of delivery& age in years (p < 0.05).
