It seemed then like you could smoke just about anywhere. ________________________________ From: ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net [mailto:ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net] On Behalf Of R. -- ________________________________ Daniel Braun Sent: Thursday, August 04, 2005 3:29 AM To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L Subject: Re: Postdates,Neonatal Death At our institution, they have to leave the property to smoke. That is a bout a quarter mile from the hospital entrance. Some do. Right along with some of our nurses on break.

A 16 y/o was scheduled for an elective IOL at 39 weeks. The patient and mother insisted she could not handle it any more, and the obstetrician scheduled her for cytotec ripening. The day she was to come in L&D was busy and they called to tell her that the elective had to be postponed till the next day. The patient's mother screamed at the nurse, swore, and threatened to either "call her attorney" or take her to another. After I assured her another hospital would not induce her without a medical indication that evening, she reluctantly accepted the postponement. #2. A teenager had a C/S due to arrest of labor at 8 cms. Immediately after returning to her room from the RR, both the patient and her mother inisisted she "needed a cigarette." After being told she could not smoke so soon after surgury, could not smoke in her room at all, both the patient and her mother signed an "AMA" form to put her in a wheelchair to go outside to smoke--less than 2 hrs. after a C/S!

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.
