I would always send for urodynamics but don't have access to urethral pressure profiling. -- Malcolm GRIFFITHS, Ob/Gyn E-mail obsdoc@doctors.org.uk Dept of Obs & Gynae +44(0)1582-497533 (Sec) 21, School Lane, Luton & Dunstable Hospital, +44(0)1582-497376 (Fax/me) Eaton Bray, Lewsey Road, +44(0)1525-222849 (Home) DUNSTABLE, LUTON, LU4 0DZ.. +44(0)1525-222643 (Fax) Beds., LU6 2DT.. >----- Original Message ----- From: robipas@freesurf.ch To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L <ob-gyn-l@forum.obgyn.net> Sent: Friday, January 28, 2000 7:10 AM Subject: urodynamic testing > Dear Colleagues, > > Who of you on the list consider complex urodynamic testing mandatory > before every surgical incontinence procedure?

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.
