摘　　要：Objective: To evaluate the adequacy between the workload and the number of midwives and state midwives practicing in the gynecology-obstetrics services of the university hospitals of Burkina Faso. Methodology: This is a multicenter study conducted in 4 university hospitals representing this country (for brevity referred here to as A, B, C, and D) from May 1, 2018, to April 30, 2019. The Workload Indicators of Staffing Need (WISN) method was used to analyze the workload. Results: Dystocic delivery was the activity that took the most time. Inpatient activities were the most performed in terms of volume. At the University Hospitals D and C, there was an over-staffing of midwives and maïeuticians with a ratio of 1.93 and 2.12 respectively. At University Hospital B, the workload was in line with the existing number of State midwives and maieuticians. A low workload pressure (04%) was found at the University Hospital A. Conclusion: In most of the University Hospital Centers, there was no match between the workload and the number of midwives and maïeuticians. These results highlight the need for redeplayment of midwives and maïeuticians in order to ensure good health coverage for midwives and maïeuticians.Objective: To evaluate the adequacy between the workload and the number of midwives and state midwives practicing in the gynecology-obstetrics services of the university hospitals of Burkina Faso.
