I suggest that if you are a nurse midwife in UK that you have Mary Crock attend all of your breech deliveries. There is something to be said for safty in the hands of a skilled experienced pratitioner. Do not try to equate Marys successes to most CNMW. I hope the CNMW in UK tell their patients that delivering primip double footling breeches is safe when Mary Crock does it but I have never done one but I would like to practice on you and your baby if that is ok? andrew

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.
