Labor charting that keeps pace with your patient
L&D nursing requires constant, detailed documentation — fetal heart rate patterns every 15-30 minutes, contraction timing, cervical change, medication titrations, and the ability to shift instantly from routine labor to a stat C-section. Glance gives you rapid, structured charting that matches the tempo of labor.
Built for obstetric nursing. Chart fetal status, labor progress, and maternal assessments without taking your eyes off the monitor for more than a few seconds at a time.

Every feature designed for the unique documentation demands of labor, delivery, and postpartum care — where you're charting for two patients at once.
Fetal Monitoring Documentation
Chart fetal heart rate baseline, variability (absent, minimal, moderate, marked), accelerations, and decelerations (early, late, variable, prolonged) with tap-based entry. Category I/II/III classification calculates from your inputs. Trend FHR patterns across the labor to track changes over time.
Contraction Tracking
Document contraction frequency, duration, intensity (mild, moderate, strong), and resting tone. Pattern tracking shows contraction regularity over time. Tachysystole alerts when frequency exceeds 5 contractions in 10 minutes. Integrates with pitocin titration documentation.
Labor Progress Charting
Track cervical dilation (0-10cm), effacement (0-100%), station (-5 to +5), position, and presentation with each exam. Visual labor curve plots dilation over time against expected progress. Automatic alerts for prolonged labor phases based on parity and stage.
OB Medication Tracking
Specialized documentation for pitocin (dose, titration history, uterine response), magnesium sulfate (loading dose, maintenance rate, toxicity monitoring — reflexes, respiratory rate, urine output), and epidural management (level, motor block, breakthrough pain). Each medication links to maternal and fetal assessment data.
Postpartum Assessment
Structured postpartum assessment — fundal height and firmness, lochia (amount, color, clots), perineal status (laceration repair, episiotomy, edema, ecchymosis), breast assessment, bonding, and emotional status. Tracks recovery trajectory across postpartum hours and days. Hemorrhage risk scoring built in.
APGAR Scoring
APGAR assessment at 1 and 5 minutes with structured entry for each component — Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity, and Respiration. Extended scoring at 10, 15, and 20 minutes when indicated. Integrates with newborn assessment and initial care documentation. Birth time, weight, and delivery details captured in one flow.
High-risk OB protocol support
Structured checklists and monitoring tools for the situations where meticulous documentation matters most.
High-Risk Protocol Checklists
Pre-built checklists for preeclampsia management (mag sulfate protocol, BP monitoring, lab surveillance), gestational diabetes (insulin titration, glucose monitoring), preterm labor (tocolytic management, betamethasone timing), and placental abnormalities. Each checklist includes timed assessments and escalation criteria.
Hemorrhage & Emergency Documentation
Rapid documentation tools for OB emergencies — postpartum hemorrhage (QBL tracking, interventions, blood products), shoulder dystocia (maneuvers documented, time stamps), cord prolapse, and stat C-section. Designed for documentation during and immediately after emergencies when recall is critical.
Why L&D nurses choose Glance
One workflow
Maternal and fetal documentation side by side. Chart for both without switching screens.
Labor curves
See dilation over time plotted against expected progress. Spot prolonged phases early.
Tachysystole alerts
Automatic alerts when contraction frequency exceeds safe limits. Linked to pitocin documentation.
Works anywhere
Chart in the LDR, the OR, or at the bedside postpartum. Syncs when WiFi reconnects.
