The underutilization of vacuum extraction in middle- and low-income countries is a missed opportunity. Its reversion is possible and provides a good chance to make considerable difference in maternal and perinatal outcomes. Lessons from implementation science and systems thinking can contribute to surprising results in the improvement of emergency obstetric care including the use of vacuum extraction, even in a severely resource- constrained setting. Through this case study I will illustrate how these lessons may lead to the creation of conditions for real change, with empowerment of staff and managers at the front-line of day-to-day practice in Tete Province, Mozambique.
