Re: A bright spot in the dayFrom: ainsron (ainsron@sbcglobal.net)Tue Mar 27 15:18:34 2007
I did a PPTL today a patient whose first name is America, her last name is German. I didn't ask, but I assume that her parents were immigrants and thankful to the country that took them in. BTW I use the Kiwi whenever I can. The one drawback is that if the suction tube, which is quite small caliber fills up with fluid, it loses its suction quickly. The Mityvac has a much longer and wider diameter suction tube and if I anticipate a long or difficult vacuum, I prefer it. Ronald E.

Her husband is still in the Middle East, she's living with parents and 4 younger sibs. Her dad (baby's grandpa) accompanied her to hospital, presumably because he's the one who speaks English and grandma doesn't. She arrived 9cm but got stuck OP for a long time and didn't end up delivering for over 4 hours. Pushed for almost 3 and finally had to put on a vacuum because of dropping heart tones. When we pulled the baby out (cried on perineum, pink immediately), grandpa's first words were "God Bless America!" BTW, it was the first time I used one of those little Kiwi vacs. They're pretty cool. Anna Meenan, MD

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.
