- PreviewWe read with interest the recently published randomized controlled trial (RCT) by Phipps et al1 evaluating the role of manual rotation in the context of the persistent occiput posterior (MROP) position. Although a trend toward a reduction of instrumental deliveries was noted, the study showed that MROP does not reduce the frequency of obstetrical intervention and of maternal and perinatal morbidity. We congratulate the authors for their hard work in conducting the RCT and would like to comment on some methodological aspects that may have affected the study findings.
