Below are the range of Christian services taking place around here this weekend. They present positively, sensitively
and with hope and joy the glorious news that Christ has shared the sufferings of the world and, by the power of God, has conquered death. Easter may be a time for
gardening, family gatherings, walks and many other good things. Supremely, it celebrates that Jesus
Christ is risen and that he can give life in all its fullness to those who turn to him today. Do include him in your Easter
celebrations by worshipping him tomorrow. Good Friday, if you can, and on Easter Day.

Forceps led to a baby’s fatal injuries
by Victoria Duffy
A BABY girl died after suffering serious head injuries caused by an aborted forceps delivery, an inquest heard. Ella Louise Livesey died in
Burnley General Hospital two hours after being delivered by Caesarean section. The inquest heard from an
expert in gynaecology and obstetrics, Mr David Campbell, who confirmed that it was high ly likely that the attempted delivery using forceps had caused Ella’s fractured skull and brain trauma. Ella died on April 3rd, 2003,
following a protracted labour in which her mother, Jeanne, of Sabden Brook Court, Sabden, spent hours pushing, but her baby did not move into the birthing canal. Mrs Livesey, who is a pharma
cy technician, told the hearing th a t she went into the Edith Watson Unit on the evening of April 2nd, 2003, with her moth er, Mrs Kathleen Howarth. I t was her third pregnancy
and she had decided that she wanted a natural birth without pain relief. She spent several hours in the birthing pool, but despite pushing for hours, the baby was not delivered. Mrs Livesey said th a t she
asked for a Caesarean section after becoming frustrated and dejected with the lack of progress. She said that she did not
remember being consulted about the use of forceps and described how she had a spinal block, but was told to keep pushing even though she could not feel any thing. Her mother said th a t she
spoke with Dr Fiona Hamer, the obstetrician and gynaecologist who was on duty, who said that the use of forceps was mentioned briefly, but described i t as an “aside”. Dr Hamer told the hearing,
held at Burnley Coroner’s Court, that she attempted to examine Mrs Livesey to establish which position the baby was in. But she said that a full internal examination would have been unduly painful with Mrs Livesey being in the second stage of labour and her not having had any pain relief. She obtained consent for an
examination under anaesthetic with the possibility of a Caesare an section - saying th a t she explained the dangers of the Caesarean, which include haem orrhaging and trauma to the baby. Under anaesthetic. Dr Hamer
was able to manually move the baby into a better position and then used the forceps in the hope that she would be able to lift the baby out.Dr Hamer said that with instrumentally-aided deliv ery, doctors hope to deliver the
baby in three contractions. But by halfway through the second contraction, she realised that it was not going to work. It was at this point that she proceeded with a Caesarean section, which involved her easing the baby out of the pelvic area with her hand. “I was surprised that the baby
moved and then didn’t deliver easily. “The injuries could have been
caused by putting the forceps around her head or during the Caesarean, but neither proce dure was difficult. I have never had a baby with such injuries before,” she said. Dr Hamer, who has performed
in excess of 500 forceps deliveries and said that minor bruising is common, said that she had con sulted colleagues across the country to try to establish a rea son for Ella’s death. She explained that forceps are designed to fit around the bab5r’s head with short handles and sug gested that at 91b. 8oz. Ella was a larger than average baby. Ella was born just before 11
a.m. and was pronounced dead at 1-10 p.m. after efforts to resus citate her. Home Office forensic patholo
gist Dr John Rutherford, who carried out the post-mortem, said that Ella had a depressed skull fracture with radial breaks and brain swelling. She had also suffered bruising to her spinal cord and tom brain membranes, which he said was uncommon in forceps delivery. In his opinion, he said that it
was difficult to say whether Ella’s injuries had been caused by the forceps or duritng the Cae sarean section - but stressed that forceps were a “reasonable expla nation for inadvertent damage”. He gave the cause of death as head trauma. Mr Campbell, from St James’s
Hospital in Leeds, was asked by officers from Lancashire Con stabulary to review the case and found that all of the guidelines set down by the Royal College of Obstetricians were followed. He said tha t cases such as Ella’s were rare with head injuries being suffered in one in 1,000 cases. Mr Campbell said that babies
can suffer fractures during labour and delivery, but, in this instance, he believed that it was highly likely that the forceps caused Ella’s injuries. East Lancashire Coroner Mr
Richard Taylor said that the family had been troubled by questions about Ella’s death for almost two years. But after hear ing the evidence from various experts, he was satisfied that her head injuries were caused during the forceps delivery. After the hearing. Dr Peter
Ehrhardt, medical director at East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust, extended his deepest sympathy to Mrs Livesey and her family on Ella’s death.
