Characterising Forces Applied During the Simulated Management of Impacted Fetal Head: Pre‐Clinical Methods Study

There was consistent use of fingertips to deliver force, perhaps due to their precision and control. Variability in dorsal and palmar regions uncovered differences in hand positioning and technique.
