Cervical insufficiency vs preterm uterine contractions or both??From: Efrain Ramirez (eramirezt@coqui.net)Tue Aug 30 22:17:08 2005
20 some years old G3, P1, Ab 1 (sab at 14 weeks) currently 18 weeks, twins - mild bleeding a few days ago- hospitalized - placed on antibiotics, Indocin- bed rest - Cx length 1.8 -- now at 2.45 - positive fFN. .. her fundal height is obviously > 20 weeks size - one of my partners was in favor of doing a cerclage because he believes she has cervical insufficiency - I do not favor it .. It's my understanding that she has premature contractions - my question is - would you give tocolysis e.g. Procardia now or would you go by the book and wait until she has 20 weeks ..

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.
