Re: Retire forceps and vacuums?From: Andrew Folley (agfolley@hotmail.com)Sat Oct 14 08:14:50 2006
As a follow up to the industrialization of obstetrics, does anyone wish to defend the postion that moms and babies would be better off if vacuums, forceps and breech deliveries were "outlawed" in the obsteric suites? I have spent the last 25 years trying to hone my skills in these areas but I wonder if we should simply say that there is no longer any place for forceps and vacuums in obstetrics. C-sections certainly have their risks but I think we would all agree that for the most part they have become a very, very safe procedure. Maybe it is time to put the vacuum and forceps on the museum shelf??? 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.
