VBAC in a patient with a ruptured uterus during a previous pregnancy/delivery seems a clear violation of Rogers' Rule. art At Mon, 30 May 2005, Missie wrote: > >I was wondering what the risk of vaginal birth after a previous uterine >rupture or a uterine vein rupture.

Women can enjoy the process of birth and add to their dignity by being educated to follow the example set by instinctive animals. Women can take joy and pleasure for the privilege of being women and bless God for being able to give birth, instead of showing snarling hostility toward the men who love them." page 20 >Husband Coached Childbirth, by Robert A Bradley, MD, copyright 1965, 1971, 1996 > >We have created our own mythology of birth. The drama of this myth is in the medical emergency, the speeding ambulance, the urgent bleep, the staccato calls for assistance, the struggles of a team of doctors and nurses to combat death…It is a drama that feeds the fears inherent in the medical model of birth and, in this way, further conditions pregnant women to submit to its ritual. >Pg. 63; Rediscovering Birth by Sheila Kitzinger > -- art fougner, md "If you don't know where you are going, you will wind up somewhere else."

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.
