> I have a patient who has asked re pt choice elective CS delivery....has Good question. We were talking about that very subject today. My son's sister-in-law is about 31 weeks and she was making noise about an elective primary C-section for all the reasons everyone usually gives. My comment was, the trade off between maternal morbidity from a primary section is at very least a pretty good trade off against the potential neonatal morbidity of labor/delivery and the maternal morbidity of delivery or failed TOL and ultimate section. Still, it would be nice to have an "authoritative" and definitive statement on it, besides the usual mealy mouthed "give all the options to the patient/informed consent" comments. Joe P.

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.
