Anyone aware if patients receiving steroids before 28 weeks if their babies
do better with respect tor RDS etc verses moms that do not receive steroids
IF more than 7 days have elapsed. In other words sterioids are great after
48 hours and within 7 days of birth. What about when mom delivers 2, 3 or 4
weeks later? I am truying to make an argument for pushing that 2nd cycle
of steroids if delivery seems iminent evne if they already had one cycle of
steroids.

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.
