Both interventions were appropriate for the same indications; the choice was at physician discretion. The primary outcome was a composite maternal outcome comprising obstetric anal sphincter injury or postpartum hemorrhage. The secondary outcome was a composite neonatal outcome including Apgar score &lt;7 at 5\u2009min, umbilical cord pH &lt;7.1, birth trauma, or neonatal intensive care unit admission.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of 2389 women, 641 (26.8%) underwent VE and 1748 (73.2%) received MFP. The composite maternal outcome occurred in 13.7% of VE versus 8.7% of MFP (odds ratio [OR] 0.60, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.45\u20130.79). The composite neonatal outcome occurred in 10.5% of VE versus 5.2% of MFP (OR 0.47, 95% CI 0.34\u20130.65), driven by higher birth trauma following VE (4.2% vs. 0.7%). After adjustment, MFP was associated with lower odds of composite maternal outcome (adjusted OR [aOR] 0.56, 95% CI 0.35\u20130.91) and composite neonatal outcome (aOR 0.57, 95% CI
