Kielland Obstetrical Fcps 41cm

Clinical Application

Designed for operative vaginal delivery, this Kielland pattern obstetrical forceps are used to assist vaginal birth when rotational maneuvers are required to correct fetal malposition (for example transverse or occiput posterior positions) and to expedite delivery when clinically indicated. The instrument is intended for use by experienced obstetricians trained in forceps delivery techniques. Proper patient selection—engaged head, reasonable cervical dilation, and adequate maternal pelvis—is essential for safe use.

Design & Configuration

The Kielland pattern is characterized by a sliding lock and blade geometry that facilitates controlled rotation of the fetal head while maintaining secure grip. Independent blade application and a low-profile lock allow the operator to apply and adjust each blade for optimal placement before completing rotational or traction maneuvers. The 41 cm overall length provides reach and mechanical advantage in the birth canal while the blade contour distributes pressure across the fetal head to minimize focal compression.
