- Operative vaginal birth (vacuum, forceps, episiotomy)
- What do these instruments look like and indications for their use
- Indications for operative vaginal birth vs. Cesarean birth
- Risks associated with vacuum and forceps
- Canada has the highest rates of obstetrical trauma
- C-section rates rising
- Ways to decrease rates of operative vaginal birth
- Ways to support those with pelvic floor injuries after birth
