Once again, we see the dissident groups of republicanism flexing their muscles and currently making a serious nuisance of themselves.
Additional force will be minimal if the application of the cup is flexing median and the direction of traction is in line with the axis of the pelvis.
These interactions are pathway specific and can include the formation of cooperative ensembles, use of interface mimicry and exchange, switching of states in chemo-mechanical assemblies, and flexing by unstructured regions.
Thus, when the centre of a 50mm cup is over the flexing point, the posterior 6cm of the suture line will be covered leaving 3cm of the anterior portion exposed.
The cup is pressed against the fetal head and, depending on the position of the occiput, manoeuvred until its centre is over the flexing point.
This application is called flexing median, and operators should strive to achieve it in all positions of the occiput.
This flexing point is an important landmark on the fetal head for vacuum extraction.
The only force accommodation is passive flexing of the structure.
