Operative and Assisted Vaginal Delivery show details
The use of operative vaginal delivery techniques—episiotomy, forceps-assisted delivery, and vacuum-assisted delivery has declined in recent years. However, despite controversy about their use, there are clinical situations where each of these procedures is the best method to effect safe and healthy delivery. Therefore, each of these techniques has a place in the obstetric provider’s toolkit. This course discusses best practices in operative vaginal delivery. The fundamental mechanics of labor and delivery are discussed, along with indications for operative vaginal delivery and the performance and repair of episiotomy. Separate discussions of forceps and vacuum delivery emphasize the relationship between the normal forces of labor and the forces applied using the forceps or vacuum.

SBAR R: Structuring Communication in Health Care show details
How we as health care workers obtain, organize, and relay information impacts our capability to provide safe, comprehensive care for our patients. Very few industries have such a dependence upon clear and accurate communication. Those that do, such as the airlines, NASA, and the nuclear power industry, long ago adopted strategies to safeguard against the potential for tragic mistakes due to faulty communication.
In this course, you will learn about one of these strategies: structured communication using the SBAR R method. Learning and using SBAR R will help you avoid unnecessary errors by enhancing the effective transmission of timely and vital information among you and every member of your health care team.
