The effort to reduce our cesarean section rates has brought focus to second stage of labor management and an alternative; operative vaginal delivery. This Webinar reviews the risks associated with vacuum delivery and presents the Vacuum Bundle as a means toward minimizing those risks of harm associated with, or caused by, the use of vacuum devices in assisting vaginal delivery. This webinar also provides an overview of how implementation of perinatal bundles can reduce variation, adverse events and improve outcomes.

Objectives:

• Discuss the risks associated with vacuum assisted delivery
• Understand how perinatal bundles aid in the reliability of delivered care
• Use the vacuum bundle in clinical care in order to minimize perinatal risk
