[Inversio uteri is a rare but potentially lethal obstetric complication].

A case of puerperal uterine inversion is, in this case report, presented in a low risk 29-year-old para 2.

[Stimulation of labour with oxytocin and ventouse deliveries are inadequately documented].

A retrospective sample of 180 records from four regional hospitals and five university hospitals in Denmark was collected and the documentation for use of oxytocin in augmentation of labour and ventouse deliveries according to the national guidelines was registered. Only approximately half of the elements in the national guidelines were documented. This shows that there is a potential for improvement in the ongoing Danish national quality improvement project Safe Deliveries (Sikre Fødsler).
