A good point but in my experience the medical staff sets "guidelines" or the physician/midwife writes orders when patients are admitted. For instance I remember our OB-GYN dept had a rule that a patient would have an NST prior to "walking" to R/O labor when they arrived at L&D prior to being admitted. I don't recall the hospital telling us that every patient had to be monitored electronically. In fact the many nurses preferred intermittent auscultation. Hospitals have a whole other issue when it comes to controlling costs. L&D nurses are probably the ones with the most ROI in view of the legal liability that the labor suite represents..

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.
