You must either adopt a risk factor treatment schedule OR a culture based protocol. If you choose the culture based protocol at 35 weeks in your practice, then what do you do with an unknown status? You change your protocol for her and switch to risk factor protocol? So you would have a culture based protocol except when a culture is forgotten or whatever and then switch to the other protocol?? I am not sure that is correct.

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.
