<<Refer to ACOG Technical Bulletin #216 on Acid-Base It states that a normal cord pH rules out perinatal hypoxia and asphyxia, if the mother's pH is normal.>>

Unless, as I said a while ago, the baby has been resuscitated in utero, right?

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.
