Is it time to abandon episiotomy use? A randomized controlled trial (EPITRIAL)

ConclusionsSince decreased use of episiotomy was not associated with higher rates of severe tears or any other adverse outcomes, we believe this procedure can be avoided in spontaneous as well as vacuum-assisted deliveries. Trial registration no. NCT02356237.
