Which type of forceps is better for nonrotational operative births? A simulation study comparing Thierry spatulas and Simpson‐Braun and Kielland forceps

Obstetric forceps play an important role in safe childbirth, yet there is a lack of distinction between various forceps types in clinical practice. This study aimed to evaluate and compare perineal pressure and forces on the baby during nonrotational forceps-assisted births using Simpson-Braun forceps, Kielland forceps, and Thierry spatulas on a simulation model.
