| Popis: | 413 women were included in the study: 100 who had had a normal delivery and 313 who had participated in a randomised controlled comparison of forceps or ventouse delivery. The study comprised a questionnaire and assessment at 24-48 hours after delivery and a questionnaire in the second year after delivery. There was significantly more morbidity in the women in the instrumental delivery group compared to women in the normal delivery group at both the early assessment and long-term follow-up. |
