>3. Only works with vertical incision

Given the dermatome innervation it would seem that a transverse incision might be better rendered anesthetized by local injection than a vertical. I wonder if anyone might comment on this. Now put aside the argument about vertical vs. pfannensteil incisions for stat sections for the moment with regards to speed of entry.

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.
