[Delivery with vacuum extraction--indications, technique and complications].
This study is a retrospective analysis of data on deliveries which ended up in vacuum extraction at the Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics in Novi Sad during two periods: 1983-85, and 1993-95. The aim of this study was to analyze indications, technique and complications of deliveries which ended up in vacuum extraction. Out of the total number of deliveries-17,110 in the period 1983-85, 4.86% ended up in vacuum extraction. The perinatal morbidity was 10.82%, the perinatal mortality 15.13/1000. In the period 1993-95, there were 18,599 deliveries, whereas 2.65% ended up in vacuum extraction. The perinatal morbidity was 8.93%, while perinatal mortality 11.12/1000. The risk of morbidity occurring in surgical procedures can be decreased if prompt vacuum extraction is performed.
