Barton Obstetrical Forceps

14" (35.5 cm) Barton Obstetrical Forceps are commonly used to aid in the delivery process when the fetal head is in the high transverse position, commonly seen during a cesarean delivery. The forceps feature a fixed posterior cephalic blade and a hinged anterior blade to firmly grasp the fetal head once locked. The blades are fenestrated to allow palpation by the surgeon and to provide minimal discomfort to the child's head.
