When suturing the perineum, it is important to consider all of the following:
 
  a. Always ensuring there is no dead space to prevent haematoma formation, using the least amount of suture material possible and not overtightening sutures as this can cause the tissues to become hypoxic and delay healing.
  b. Always ensuring there is no dead space to prevent haematoma formation, using the largest amount of suture material possible and not overtightening sutures as this can cause the tissues to become hypoxic and delay healing.
  c. Always ensuring there is no dead space to prevent haematoma formation, using the least amount of suture material possible and ensuring the sutures are tight enough to ensure adequate haemostasis.
  d. Always ensuring there is no dead space to prevent haematoma formation, using the least amount of suture material possible and ensuring the sutures are tight enough to ensure adequate haemostasis.

  b. no PFME or usual antenatal care.
