> I am delivering at a new hospital and have noticed that the epidurals There is a very wide variation at hospitals here in Atlanta. In my experience, the anesthesiologists do what they want. I've tried talking to them about doses and various mixes and very few of them want to know what I think about the desirable level for labor and delivery. ('Course, I'm just a midwife.) I've seen women who couldn't control their legs to turn back into the bed as soon as the epidural was placed and other women who could walk to the bathroom with theirs. Some give very heavy doses because they don't want to be called back into the room to redose. Others seem to like to titrate the level up over time, routinely returning to check and redose. Lots of styles and philosophies. Kay Johnson, CNM Atlanta, GA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Life is too important to be taken seriously" Oscar Wilde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

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.
