29 YO P1001 at 38w admitted by CNM for induction in early AM as her husband was going overseas. Her pregnancy has been uncomplicated.

Admitted in AM 1/5/50/-2, Pitocin begun and AROM around 1300.

At 1530 CNM calls--arm in vagina.

On my exam, 5-6/50 vtx/arm past elbow in vagina, easily reduced.

Pit resumed, patient sat up.

Cx. at 1750 7/80/-2 reasonably applied to cervix, and unchanged two hours later. The hand is gone, EFW 2900g.

What's next?

Garry

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.
