I just reread the ACOG statement and the UptoDate link and it does say that the 35-37 wk if negative is the one to use. Glen D.

By the book, she's negative, so no (unnecessary) treatment. Remember - it just leads to resistant microbial flora in the population and difficult infections down the road. For your coronary arteries (and your insurance carrier), probably treat. Joe P.

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.
