Evaluating the effect of two different training interventions on improving vaginal twin birth rates and provider confidence and knowledge levels: A pre‐ and post‐intervention study
In settings with a high background cesarean section rate, a rapid increase in the vaginal birth rate of twins is possible without adversely affecting maternal or neonatal outcomes, via either staff-wide training or specialist teams. Simulation and skills training can improve provider confidence, knowledge, and skill levels as well as impact clinical practice in the labor ward.
