Re: pelvimetryFrom: Garry E. Siegel (garrys@atl.mindspring.com)Thu Oct 17 21:04:27 1996
I would only use pelvimetry for an attempted vaginal breech delivery. Two questions for the list readers? My hospital's radiologists are more in tune with CT pelvimetry (fine by me), and, in fact, no one can find the Colcher-Sussman forms, or the metal ruler used for X ray pelvimetry. What are ya'll doing if pelvimetry is needed? (I'm Atlanta born and bred, and ya'll is not only good english, but *great* english) I have read about the feto-pelvic index, in which a CT is done for pelvimetry, and a BPD is done by ultrasound. Apparently, you can predict CPD with this, and I have contemplated, but never used this, for women desiring VBAC who were sectioned previously for CPD when 10 cm, etc. Does anyone really use this?

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.
