Summary
Most elective cesarean deliveries are performed under regional anesthetic (whether epidural or spinal) for reason of patient safety and satisfaction. The fundal pressure exerted by the surgeon and the assistant in an effort to deliver an unengaged fetal vertex through a thick lower uterine segment is often perceived as uncomfortable, even painful, by the patient(Depp, 1996).Several methods have been described for the delivery of the fetal head at the time of elective cesarean delivery. The most common is simple manual delivery. If this proves to be difficult, the surgeon will ask for the use of an instrument to facilitate the delivery of the fetal head(Warenski 1981).Therefore we will conduct a study to compare 2 methods of delivery of the fetal head (forceps-assisted versus manual delivery) at time of elective cesarean section as regards unintended extension of the uterine incision, hemoglobin change 24 hours after cesarean section.
