Had an interesting case last week, wondering what others would do:

32 yo G3P2 presented to the GP's office @ 37&1/7 with fetal tachycardia. Sent in to Hospital for NST & US & OB consult. NST Fetal tachy up to 200, occ dips to 140 and then return to "baseline". U/S no structural abnormalities, N(ormal) fluid, N tone, N resp effort, N movement. Pas OB Hx 2 SVDs, second one rapid labour with 6 min second stage. Uneventful prenatal course prior, no risk factors known.

What would you do?

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.
