In addition to what Joe said, If I am concerned about infection, I also culture the newborn's ear canal and do a gastric aspirate on the baby. Ronald E.

I have seen it done so many different ways and I have been told that there is a "correct" way to do it. Do you get aerobic and anaerobic swabs? Maternal and fetal surfaces? Between the cotyledons?

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.
