That is why we always place a bright orange tag on the epidural catheter, "For Epidural use only." Maybe at this hospital, someone needs to place a tag on the IV line, "Not for epidural use."

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.
