Re: Vaginal Delivery of twinsFrom: Braun, R. Daniel (rbraun@iupui.edu)Sun Jan 30 20:55:26 2000
You will frequntly 10-20% need anesthesia for vaginal delivery in twins( as in crash induction (Maybe only 5%) so you will want to do no twins in a room that has no anesthesia machine. You should also probably have 2 OB's for a twin delivery. The most experienced one manipulating the ultrasound and 2nd baby while the other is delivering first baby. Dan R.

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.
