I'd think Mats' recent classif cation of &quot;litterature&quot;, and His former &quot;Eminence-based Med cine&quot; are 'profound'. So enlighten us, Joe. Your nullip with suspecte macrosomia (based on abnl GTT, wt gain, obesity, and clinical assessment) has now been pushing 3.5 hrs with her epidural and 'adequate uterine contr ctions' (defined in any way you'd like). There is separation of the introi us with ctxs, but not in between. There is 3 cm caput, and the BPD is at t e spines.

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.
