Brain damaged baby from GBS meningitis.......priceless. Pick a number between 1 and 10 and add six zeroes to it on your check to the family.

That gets it up to $600,000 to prevent one infection.Dan On Nov 28, 2007 8:31 PM, < DoctorJoe@aol.com> wrote: In a message dated 11/28/07 7:03:47 PM, rd.braun@gmail.com writes: let me see, Screen costs at least $50 and treatment at least $500.2000 X's 50 = 100,000 and 400 X's 500 200,000. That means it costs somewhere around $300,000 to prevent 1 case of severe infection. That doesn't take in to account the complications of treating with Penicillin (allergic reactions, medication errors, etc.) or of those who improperly treat with Ampicillin (creating resistant strains of other organisms), etc. . jury in your case.Joe P.Chuck Norris puts GBS on his cornflakes in the morning -- AFTER he puts on the MRSA. of Obstetrics and GynecologyIndiana U.

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.
