Oh, I hear ya Kay. Only in my case it's me(the FP) asking the resident, who is being pressured by the nurse. I carry a copy of the ACOG and CDC guidelines in my briefcase, but do they care to read them?

Of course, if the mom should have an anaphylactic reaction to the pcn, you know whose fault it is going to be.

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.
