Try it when baby being pulled anteriorly by gravity and sacrum levered up posteriorly by attending's hand (and arm), as they are in the all-4's position. As I said, the amount of extra space you achieve is AMAZING. The last time I did it, I was able to reduce a posterior arm that was trapped behind the baby's back. Anna Meenan, MD I have heard of this maneuver, but the thought of making a woman flip around with a baby's head between her legs scares me a little bit. What if she sits on the baby's head by accident? Allan

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.
