A cord in the hand ... was umbilical cord hematomaFrom: Joanne Bulley (islesannie@yahoo.com)Sat Sep 9 12:37:31 2000
I had a woman in labor with the weirdest tracing - beautiful reactivity, profound decel - with good reactivity at the bottom then return to being beautiful. First baby. After enough of these with nothing making a profound change and the labor going like a first labor (only 1 or 2 cm when the decels started) - I gave up and did a C/S - telling the patient and hubby that my gut said things were fine and this was some type of intermittent cord compression, but I couldn't wait it out. At C/S - the kid had the cord held in its hand. My supposition - it "held its cord" til it "passed out" then would come to. Just like our kids who hold their breath, pass out and then are fine. I guess it'd be an interesting tracing to post or print as a case report, but God only knows what the mom's name was or when she delivered... Joanne

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.
