Do it in case of labor before planned C/S. I wouldn't treat, even if ROM, just notify peds so they can follow the baby closely. It will be in-house for at least 48 hours anyway.

What do you think of GBS testing when the patient will have a planned repeat ceserean? Do you do it in case of PROM? Do you then wait 4 hours prior to c/sec? Thanks, Ingrid Gold, CNM

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.
