I've never used a vacuum, but I'm curious. If misapplied, does it pop off? Is this because baby's head is in a position different than the provider thought? Or does the baby deliver sometimes even if position is incorrectly assumed? Or are these the failed vacuums? Or does the provider just re-apply in a different place? Ingrid Gold, CNM >

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.
