Re: 18 Week "Previa"From: R. Daniel Braun (rBraun@IUNET.IUPUI.EDU)Fri Sep 20 11:43:15 1996
ronhelm@ronhelm.seanet.com writes: The 18 week scan diagnosed previa is practically a normal variant, and unless the patient bleeds, needs only be repeated at a later gestation. Why do you need to repeat it at a later gestation if she doesn't bleed ?? Is this a medical legal response ?? Placentas are always firmly attached to the uterine wall and are never peripatetic. The placenta never moves. Only our perception of the placentas location changes from an early inaccurate perception to a later accurate perception. The percption early is inaccurate because of the procedure and nature. Not because the scan is misread.

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.
