Re: C-Section - was Dr. Sidney WolfeFrom: DoctorJoe@aol.comWed Aug 30 22:21:01 2000
In a message dated 8/30/00 9:27:56 PM, evsono@pipeline.com writes: << there is a provocative letter to the editor in the September Green Journal by Dr. L. Lewis Wall concerning analysis of risks and benfits of C-section. Briefly, Dr. Wall points out that the current debate over-emphasizes on the acute morbidities and risks of C - sections while failing to factor in the long term morbities of vaginal delivery - ie incontinence and prolapse. while not favoring one over the other, he makes an eloquent plea for a more even-handed evaluation of this all too politicized national imperative to "lower the C-section rate." >> I was in the same department with Dr. Wall for a while... I would comment that he is, in great part, an anthropologist. So he takes a long and philosophic view of things. I think HIS analysis of this debate, even though he's a urogynecologist and would tend to be biased towards his own "business," should be taken very seriously. 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.
