Agree it does matter towomen and it does effect quality of medical care. Fro instance heart tones bottom out to 60's and primip complete and +3/5. You tell her to push like she has never pushed before. 5 minutes go by. Nurse tells you every 30 seconds heart tones still down. Some will race her down the hall and do a stressful "crash" c-section those trained in the lost arts will ask for the "forbidden forceps" and deliver the baby 2 minutes later. Not as simple as you make it el and Richard. agf

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.
