A retrospective study over a 5-year period compared neonatal outcomes after birth by Kielland's forceps with those after caesarean section in the second stage of labour. The 253 babies born by these two modes of delivery showed no difference in Apgar score, the need for active resuscitation, incidence of jaundice or abnormal neurological behaviour. The neonatal outcome was no worse in the small number of patients where Kielland's forceps delivery was attempted but failed. This study offers support for the continuing role of Kielland's forceps in modern obstetrical practice.
