Re: Measuring AFI in a Diamniotic Twin pregnancyFrom: Greg Kesby (greg.kesby@sufw.com.au)Mon Jan 31 21:21:41 2005
AS A SUBSPECIALIST IN MATERNAL FETAL MEDICINE I PREFER A TOTAL FOUR QUADRANT AFI AND A DEEPEST POCKET IN EACH SAC. FROM THIS I CAN INFER THE REST. -----Original Message----- From: ultrasound@obgyn.net [mailto:ultrasound@obgyn.net]On Behalf Of Raul Limos Sent: Tuesday, 1 February 2005 3:10 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ULTRASOUND Subject: Measuring AFI in a Diamniotic Twin pregnancy What method to use when you have two amniotic sacs and you want to know if they have polyhydramnios or not? Had a recent case of a diamniotic twin pregnancy (28 weeks and 31 weeks AOG) which on eyeballing alone both sacs appeared to have polyhydramnios. OB-GYN doctor was insisting to measure each individual amniotic sac. There appears to be twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome and/or hydrops fetalis in this pregnancy. Thank you.

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.
