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.
