There are informations for cesarean sections, and a rather complete information on the pregnancy and the delivery has been published by our National College. No consentment is needed for the delivery, for a woman consenting to be pregnant does consent to be delivered, IMHO. Bernard

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.
