Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Both types of assisted births can cause intracranial hemorrhage. Only the forceps may cause facial nerve paralysis; only the vacuum causes caput chignon. Maternal (not fetal) bladder injury is a risk of forceps-assisted delivery.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
This is a description of the third-degree laceration.
