The forceps delivery, primarily indicated Caesarian sectio and spontaneous delivery are analyzed. Statistical methods: Correlation coefficients Cramers's V, Kendall's tau, Kruskal's gamma and chí-square, too. It was elected non-parametric statistical methods because we want to ensure full validity of our results in situation, when the distribution of dates and frequence of responds in analyzed sets was very unevenly.
