Re: Tripple Screen/AFPFrom: Robert J. Carpenter, Jr. MD (zygote@icsi.net)Tue Jul 19 22:13:15 2005
The data from the Brtisih AFP studies WHEN 2 MS-aFP were done yieled 4% incidence of abn and if first abn, then repeated the incidnece of abn reduced by 50%. Of that 2% (20/1000) 2/1000 ended up being either IUFD or IUGR with preterm delivery. Very elevated values deserve an evaluation since 10% will have adverse outcome. What has never been shown by evidence based data is how do you follow the population and does it make a difference! ???? On 19 Jul 2005 at 18:40, Len2976@aol.com wrote:

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.
