Re: Amnisure for ruptured membranesFrom: ainsron (ainsron@sbcglobal.net)Fri Dec 2 10:11:58 2005
Same as mine, why give up something that has worked well over the years, is low cost, highly sensitive and reliable for a new test that costs more. Just because it is new and uses technology, rather than a microscope does not make it better or more useful. The only advantage I see is if the nurses can use it and read it when I'm not there. Does it fall into the category of waived tests for CLIA, or does it have to go to the lab to be read? Ronald E.

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.
