What is everyone doing or using? I am leaning more and more toward polypropylene mesh (BARD) and use of 2-0 Nylon to secure it in place. andrew >From: "Andrew Folley" <agfolley@hotmail.com> >Reply-To: ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net >To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L <ob-gyn-l@dns.obgyn.net> >Subject: RE: von Willebrand's >Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2005 18:57:41 -0500 > >Agree, recall that one treatement regimen for severe hemorrhage in >adolescents is use of IV estrogen 25mg q 4 hours. for 6 doses. andrew > >>From: "Raymond Stephen" <stephen.raymond@dhhs.tas.gov.au> >>Reply-To: ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net >>To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L <ob-gyn-l@dns.obgyn.net> >>Subject: RE: von Willebrand's >>Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2005 18:13:16 -0500 >> >>She needs oestrogen not progesterone.

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.
