Siegel, M.D.: "Re: Pregnancy 'wheels'" The most inaccurate wheel I've found is the brass one chained to the desk on L&D. I can change the date by 6 days depending on which direction I push it from the middle. Could be due to the fact that the thing has been there for at least 25 years. -- Anna Meenan, MD At Fri, 15 Jul 2005, Don Miller wrote: > >At Fri, 15 Jul 2005, Seele, Mona wrote: >> >>You can order from the March of Dimes > >As a critique of wheels for years (and I had designed my own electronic >version as a standalone device and then for the Apple Newton), I saw the >MOD wheels at ACOG but they only go up to 40 weeks (that I consider a >design flaw by designers who must think everyone delivers on their EDD; >a flaw just like tape measures that have the scale start at the very >beginning of the tape rather than a centimeter or so further up the tape >so you can put your thumb on the symphysis and the tape under your >thumb). > >I still have a few gray metal wheels printed for Bendectin, and heavy >brass ones by OrthoNovum something. > >If you carry an Internet computer in your pocket, we have a readable >Wheel at the left bottom of the page at http://www.eNATAL.com (you'll see a >small scanned picture of the Bendectin wheel).

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.
