Default Re: HOOP?

We have an Midwifery Led Care unit alongside the Labour Suite, and it tends to be a straight split between the two - poised on MLC, on on Labour Suite! The only time I've found it vaguely helpful to be really hands on is when the descent of the fetal head has been very rapid. But even then, I have no idea if it made any difference as far as perineal outcome is concerned.
