Kielland's midwifery Forceps : a practical demonstration.

Describes the forceps and demonstrates how they are applied to the foetal head. The careful and exact diagnosis of the position of the occiput by abdominal and pelvic examination were emphasised by Kielland, and the methods of examination are depicted at some length. The delivery of an emergency case with labour delayed owing to arrest of the head in the transverse diameter is demonstrated. The forceps are applied by Kielland's classical method. The programme includes detailed and graphic scenes of a forcep delivery.
