Makes sense to me.

How many units of blood does a woman usually have? So dilute 2 units over her blood volume and see if it makes sense to dilute 100K bHCG level down to 150.

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.
