My Emergency department is full of physicians with self inflicted gunshot wounds, last November I delivered a 7lbs 2 oz ectopic that had been worked up and had a consult request for R/O ectopic early in the day, O.K. Mom had a BMI of 49 I'll give them that.

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.
