I had the exact same situation, except a vacuum assisted delivery produced a baby tightly holding the cord. It makes me wonder how many stillbirths, or cases of cerebral palsy, are due to acute but prolonged cord compression. If anyone could prove this is a common antepartum event it would scare the hell out of pregnant women and their spouses, and perhaps scare malpractice lawyers even more.

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.
