So, you should only apply it for only the simplest of lift-outs (and at caesareans if required) where the direction of pull should be first towards you and then up....unlike the long curved forceps where you first pull down, then towards you and finally up. I never use Wrigley's even for a lift out because an inadvertent pull downward can cause fairly bad posterior vaginal wall tears. They are however useful at caesareans. Dr. Rupak Ranjan Roy MRCOG

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
