Evaluation of accuracy of mediolateral episiotomy incisions using a training model

of the 197 incisions performed only 12.7% (14.6%, n=21/144 of midwives and 7.5%, n=4/53 of obstetricians) complied with the defined technique of a RMLE for correctness of angle and placement. A 2-sided Fisher׳s exact test showed no significant difference between previous attendance at perineal management training and incision accuracy.
