Re: OB: FRI: A Time To Be Born?From: RModugno@aol.comFri Jul 28 09:10:46 2000
In a message dated 7/28/00 9:15:40 AM Eastern Daylight Time, evsono@pipeline.com writes: << Studies from Wales and Scotland in 1998 showed a positive correlation between intrapartum asphyxia and night time births. Gunther et al investigated this relation through a retrospective cohort study of 380 980 births in Hesse, Germany, in 1990-8 (p 274). Their results confirm the previous studies, with babies born at night having a higher relative risk of early neonatal death (1.86) and asphyxia related death (3.89) than those born in the day. The authors speculate that the higher mortality might be caused by tired staff working at night after a full day's work. >> Solution: Routine elective induction @7.0am - active management - if not delivered by 7pm - Cesarean section Robert Modugno MD MBA FACOG Marietta, GA

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.
