Vaginal examination. (OR=7.22, 95% CI, 2.22-23), body temperature ((OR=4.01, 95%CI, 1.09-14.7).mode of delivery (OR=4.77, 95%CI, 1.38-16.47) and duration of membrane rupture (OR=6.22, 95% CI, 1.93-20.0) were the most significant association with development of puerperal sepsis during child birth and post –partum period.
