Abstract
Large series suggest that, when used with appropriate care and skill, rotational deliveries with Kjelland's forceps are a safe and useful procedure. We surveyed obstetric trainees in Australia to assess their experience with, and intentions to use, Kjelland's forceps. The response rate was 65%, and it was uncommon for even senior trainees to have performed more than ten Kjelland's forceps rotations during their training. Ninety-four per cent of final-year trainees stated they did not intend to use Kjelland's forceps in their consultant practice.
