Cara and Missi are joined for this episode by Dr. Sam Bleull to discuss the use of forceps or vacuum when needed for operative vaginal birth. While midwives may have expanded scope to use vacuum and/or forceps, they often rely on physician colleagues to step in and assist. Indications, contraindications, and sequelae are reviewed. #HelpFromBelow #Collaborate #Intrapartum #PhoneAFriend #CollaborativePractice #CanIGetAnAssist
