NO digital vaginal exams, 2. Ampicillin 3. Steroids 4. Observation IN HOSPITAL until: A. Reaches 37 weeks or B. Shows signs of infection. My observation in addition to Temperature recording would include a daily 10 min FHR strip for BASELINE FHR. The baseline FHR will increase prior to most other signs of infection. Would also daily palpate for tenderness. Labor in a patient with ROM may well be a sign of infection and hence an indication for delivery. Dan

> Not if I have my say and nature is cooperative with no labor, no infection, Not sure steroids that helpful from 34 weeks. In our level 3 hospital would probably deliver as outcomes at 34 weeks are excellent. Robert Modugno MD MBA FACOG Marietta, GA

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.
