I have found it happening more and more in the last couple of years, and I chalk it up to less staff in L&D. I've never calculated our rate, but I know it doesn't even approach 1%. You're doing very well.I tell my residents I want to be called in as soon as the cervix starts to change on cytotec inductions and I still missed the last one. -- Anna Meenan, MD At Sun, 01 Feb 2004, D.

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.
