Seite 242 - The same force which dilates the sphincter ani compels the occiput to hug the pubes and favors extension, especially if the fingers in the rectum are hooked over the prominences of the foetal face or over the chin, (c) This aid is not liable to sudden interruption...
Seite 242 - Whenever, therefore, it seems proper to aid nature, insert one or two fingers of the left hand into the rectum, the woman lying on her left side, with her knees well drawn up and separated by a pillow, and hook up and pull forward the sphincter ani towards the pubes.
