Vacuum extractor delivery - what does this mean

Vacuum extractor delivery is a method of delivery used to assist with the delivery of a baby during labor. it involves using a vacuum cup attached to a handle to create suction between the baby's head and the wall of the uterus, allowing the physician to pull the baby out more quickly and with less force than would be used with a traditional delivery.

What happens during the disease - vacuum extractor delivery

Vacuum extractor delivery is a medical procedure in which a vacuum device is used to assist with the delivery of a baby during labor and delivery. the vacuum extractor works by creating a vacuum around the baby's head, which helps to pull the baby out of the birth canal and helps to reduce the amount of pushing and pulling needed by the mother. the vacuum device has been found to reduce the risk of injury to both the mother and the baby during delivery. however, if the vacuum is used incorrectly, it can cause damage to the baby's head, neck, and scalp, as well as to the mother's pelvic floor muscles and tissues.
