HIV testingFrom: Dr. Ainsworth (ainsron@sbcglobal.net)Sat Nov 29 15:53:01 2003
Today I had the second positive HIV since beginning routine OB testing. It was on a woman I've known for 20 years. She and her husband are both pillars of the community, both professionals. Now I've got to have her come in on Monday to discuss this abnormal test result. Barring a screw up at the lab, this result will be devastating to this family because of the ramifications that one or the other was unfaithful and/or has a hidden life. She has never had a surgery or blood transfusion and to my knowledge, neither has he. It certainly emphasizes to me that we need to do universal screening for HIV and not exclude our friends and neighbors from testing.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
