Phosphatidylglycerol came back positive on a sample of AF. No signs of infection. No signs of fetal distress. Fetal growth ok on US scans. AFI shows 'moderate oligo'. >> How was the AF collected? Did you do an L/S ration or some other confirmatory test also? PG can come back falsely positive from bacterial contamination. I would be especially suspicious since this baby is so young. (BTW, what IS the fetal weight?) Joe P.

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.
