Re: Retire forceps and vacuums?From: Ronald Ainsworth (ainsron@sbcglobal.net)Sun Oct 15 21:21:44 2006
You're right about the mere mention of "forceps" causing terrible reverberations throughout the delivery room, I began noticing it in the early 80's. Thank God vacuum extraction didn't raise the same level of concern from most parents. I've always though the militant lamaze and Bradley instructors were the biggest critics of both techniques who gained the trust and confidence of the patients.

In CR possibly (I don´t have precise statitstics) less than 20% of residents develop the skills to use it. The youger obstetricians prefer cs than a forceps. I had the chance in my formation to get very good skills with forceps, but the enviroment to use it are the worse. When you are goint to use it, is like a terrific event in delivery room. All the nurse and other personal run to the room, like if some person (baby or mother), will be sacrificated. The pacient´s husband put a dramatic face when listen the diabolic word "forceps". OK; the entorn to do it is not the better. What happened ? 2006/10/14, Bernard Cristalli <bcrist@club-internet.fr>: Andrew, Would you section a woman with a baby at the low part of the pelvis, rather than perform a low forceps? Let's teach obstetricians or the next step will be to ban vaginal deliveries. BC
