In a vacuum extraction 36.2% of the children were born in asphyxia, in 20.9%-with symptoms of disturbed cerebral circulation. In children from the age of 1-7 years-16.3% of them demonstrated pathological signs of the different parts of the nervous system. In this connection the authors suggest a screening by the neurologists during the first days of life of all children born by vacuum extraction.
