Re: Informed consentFrom: ainsron (ainsron@sbcglobal.net)Mon Jun 5 10:50:02 2006
I give them the consent to review when I give them the information on pre-registration at 28-30 weeks, and tell them to bring it back next visit for further discussion and signature. I fax them once they are signed. Ronald E. Ainsworth, MD, FACOG -----Original Message----- From: ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net [mailto:ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net] On Behalf Of Elrod, Darryl G Maj 48 MDOS/SGOBO Sent: Monday, June 05, 2006 7:49 AM To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L Subject: Re: Informed consent So, with that said, do you sign consent forms for vaginal delivery before they actually come in for labor? I agree with Gail that this really makes the most sense. The patient isn't under duress, has a clearer head about them to listen and ask questions and can be more truly informed about the process. Besides, who in labor wants to hear that you could have a 4th degree that would make you permanently incontinent right before you're about to push? If the consensus is that most are signing consents early, I might move toward having our department do that as well. Glen //SIGNED// D.

And YES, hospitals (or more properly, nurses, other doctors, Rollo Tomassi, etc.) DO, on occasion, take things from the chart and destroy documents to caste aspersions on others. I've seen it, too. I'm sure Joe. C.'s story is a nasty one.

Long story you don't want to hear. Bottom line - in your hospital are persons who are hired hospital employees but work for attorneys outside. Tell you its not true? Wish I could. Joe C

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.
