Nope.

I do care for a woman in whom the OB did the low tranverse SO low ... he made a huge cut into the bladder (she had been pushing for 3 hours) -- She had a horrendous post op course and several surgeries before she was (more or less) OK. She is still traumatized enough to be unwilling to undergo another pregnancy...

Long ago I learned the longer a woman had been pushing - the "higher" I did the LT C/S.

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.
