Abstract
Worldwide the vacuum extractor is the instrument used most commonly for assisted vaginal delivery. Many institutions use electric pumps in preference to the original hand pump, considered by some to be inefficient (requiring an assistant). A new foot pump has been developed. In a controlled comparison with a standard electric pump, no differences in efficiency were found.Year: 1997 PMID: 15511873 DOI: 10.1080/01443619750112709
