I would agree that less is more for example repeating ultrasounds rarely contributes much after the dx of blighted ovum. We follow serum hcg until there is a decreasing titre noted and then repeat a urine hcg in 7 to 10 days. Timothy Fitzpatrick Mbbch. LRCS Ire. Baystate Medical Center Springfield Ma.

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.
