Mediolateral episiotomy during vacuum‐assisted delivery in nulliparous women was associated with lower obstetric anal sphincter injury (1.4% vs 2.8%; adjusted odds ratio 0.42, 95% CI 0.25–0.70). The protective effect was greater when intrapartum risk factors were present, including prolonged second stage, occiput posterior position, and birthweight ...
