"Assisted vaginal birth using the Paily obstetric forceps vs Ventouse - A randomized clinical trial".

Objective: Instruments used in assisted vaginal birth have seen little innovation for decades. Due to the risk of trauma and technical difficulty incurred during forceps delivery, instrumental deliveries are on a decline, and the global rate of primary cesarean birth is rising. The novel Paily Obstetric Forceps (POF) features a compact, lighter design with thinner blades, designed to increase operator comfort and minimize maternal and neonatal injuries.
