Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The investigators hypothesize that the rate of perineal lacerations in nulliparous women will be reduced by a simple change in common obstetrical delivery practice, i.e., bed delivery versus conventional delivery in obstetrical stirrups.
