Posted on 29/04/2024

Ria is 9 months pregnant and have arrived for her gynaecologist consultation. Her due date is approaching and she wants to clear her apprehensions regarding different equipments used and its safety during delivery. Let’s take a look at the discussion between Ria and her doctor.

What is a forceps delivery?

A forceps delivery is a type of vaginal assisted delivery, which is occasionally required during vaginal childbirth. A forceps delivery occurs when a health care provider applies forceps to the baby's head — an instrument shaped like a pair of large spoons or salad tongs — to help guide the baby out of the birth canal.

What is vacuum assisted delivery?

A vacuum extraction, also known as vacuum-assisted delivery, is a procedure that is sometimes used during vaginal childbirth. During a vacuum-assisted vaginal delivery, a health care provider applies a vacuum cup to the baby's head (a soft or rigid cup with a handle and a vacuum pump) to help guide the baby out of the birth canal. This is usually done while the mother is pushing during a contraction.

Ria now enquire about the disadvantages and risks of forceps delivery to her doctor. Check what her doctor has to say.

What are the disadvantages of forceps delivery?

The mother may be exposed to the following risks:

Bleeding

It's typical to have bleeding after giving birth. You may experience some heavy bleeding just after forceps delivery. This will gradually subside in the following days.

Pelvic floor trauma

Damage to the muscles, nerves, or other tissues of the pelvic floor, which alters their function and leads to pelvic floor weakening, is known as maternal pelvic floor trauma. Pelvic floor trauma is more common in delivery aided with forceps than in the case of vacuum assisted delivery.

Bowel and bladder problems

Urinary incontinence (leaking urine) can occur after childbirth, and it is more frequent following a forceps delivery. Pelvic floor exercises are useful for this problem.

Blood clots

Blood clots in the veins of your legs and pelvis (deep vein thrombosis) are more likely to form during pregnancy, and this risk is increased after a forceps delivery. Staying as mobile as possible after giving delivery can help reduce this risk.

Ria is further worried about the risks for the baby and her doctor explains as follows to her question-

Are there any risks for the baby?

Forceps delivery may leave a mark on the baby’s face and usually disappears within 24–48 hours. Also it may leave small cuts on the baby’s face or scalp, which will heal quickly.

Having discussed the disadvantages of forceps delivery we can say that the vacuum option is more frequently used than forceps. This is because it normally doesn’t require as much anesthesia or pain medications for its use. This option is less risky for both the baby and the mother.

To make her feel relieved the doctor introduces a new product Ciyan- Power Vacuum Grasp which is used for vacuum-assisted delivery which has numerous benefits over traditional devices.

  • A functionality test is done to make sure device works fine.
  • Now we check for crowning and fetal head position.
  • The distance from the perineum to the fetal head is calculated using the suitable method.
  • Next we slowly insert the vacuum cup into the birth canal and place the cup on the fetal head.
  • The VAD handle is then switched on while pressing the cup against the head position and the head is slowly pulled outside the birth canal.
