David, Danville General is a community hospital and they probably don't have a pediatrician in-house. If this was an unexpectedly unresponsive newborn, the obstetrician probably had to resuscitate the baby and getting the cord blood pH isn't one's first priority. When you do finally get back to the mom and you are simultaneously delivering the placenta and explaining to the family what has happened, it is easy to forget the cord blood.

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.
