I never have an "Inadvertent" cystostomy. I am always paying attention when I get in the bladder.

Inadvertent means "Heedless, Careless, negligent". Eliminate the word from all of your medical charts. Don't use it.

I would do #2.

How would you handle a inadverent cystotomy at the time of a vaginal hysterectomy? 1) Repair it yourself, test for patency with milk, indigo carmine or methylene blue, leave catheter in for x days. 2) Same as #1, but also do a cystoscopy. 3) Do a cystoscopy on all vaginal surgeries. 4) Call for a urologist to handle the repair.

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.
