Abstract
Our results are in accordance with those of the national guidelines. However, our rate does not decrease in 2007 and 2008 (20%), contrary to some results obtained in the literature. Some reports mentioned the weak impact of the publication of national guidelines to modify the usual practice. However, we believe that retro-information to practitioners has a real impact on their daily current practice. Hence we insisted again on the importance of these national guidelines at the end of 2008 and we could demonstrate a real decline of the rate of episiotomy. Our efforts have to be continued, especially for instrumental delivery.
