Vacuum extraction as a method of obstetric delivery has been used extensively over the last 40 years, chiefly in Europe and Australia. It has many advantages over forceps and caesarean section delivery for fetus, mother and obstetrician and its low fetal and maternal morbidity encourages its use in countries where the necessary equipment is readily available. This text is a manual of the equipment and techniques of vacuum extraction.
