Good luck with your conference Jane. > FWIW: Busy delivery day Wednesay; the office was trashed. 7 AM--took over for partner who had a 7:30 case. Primigravida being ripened/induced for PIH at term. Fully dilated since 0200, pushing for 2.5 hours. ILF/Rotation OP +2 to OA with Kiellands at 8 AM SVD at 10 AM SVD at 3 PM ER patient rolls in by Ambulance, from another group/hospital. Known term breech, P2002, for C/S next week. Arrives at 1714 in L and D, 8 cm/complete breech by my exam at 1715; preparations made for emergency C/S. At 1720 has the urge to push, to OR/DR at 1725. Assited Breech Extraction--7.5 pound baby, very easy. 35+ weeker with prior myomectomy and 4 sections calls at 2000 with severe LLQ pain "in the area they said my uterus was thin." Arrives 2030, contracting, not dilated, baby OK. Repeat Classical C/S. So, Andrew, in this particular day: Forcep Rotation Vaginal Breech Delivery 5th section--Classical as her bladder didn't really move and she had an undeveloped lower uterine segment I suppose there are still a few things an Obstetrician is good for.

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.
