    Area of Science:

    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Instrumental Vaginal Delivery

    Background:

    • Kielland's forceps are used for rotational delivery.
    • Instrumental delivery rates vary, particularly in primigravid women.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Kielland's forceps for rotational delivery.
    • To assess neonatal outcomes and maternal complications associated with Kielland's forceps use.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective study over 15 months.
    • Analysis of 145 deliveries using Kielland's forceps.
    • Review of neonatal outcomes and traumatic injuries.

    Main Results:

    • Successful vaginal delivery rate of 96.7% with Kielland's forceps.
    • Low incidence of minor neonatal trauma (7.6%).
    • No perinatal deaths observed.

    Conclusions:

    • Kielland's forceps are safe for mid-pelvic rotational delivery, even with fetal distress.
    • This method can reduce cesarean section rates without increasing risk.
    • Skilled use by obstetricians is crucial, especially for primigravid women, to maintain low cesarean rates and good neonatal outcomes.
