Re: frequency of induction/augmentation in USFrom: art fougner, md (evsono@pipeline.com)Wed Jul 5 14:21:20 2000
Geff - an interesting concept to be sure. the definition of perinatal mortality uses 1000 live births as the denominator. but at term, and most certainly postterm, what we might wish to look at is the risk of mortality among the cohort of fetuses still undelivered. if you perform this exercise, you find that the nadir of mortality is about 37+ wks. the rate rises rapidly after that. a woman having an NST once asked me what we were waiting for once the risk of prematurity had past. good question!

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.
