Yep, ain't that the truth. Some of you may have remembered that my local hospital was attempting to ban all vaginal breeches. For the time being we've gotten a reprieve. Now we are fighting over a protocol that will be acceptable to everyone. I know, good luck with that. Weirdest thing is all the entities that are chiming in about this who don't do breech deliveries or don't do obstetrics at all. But then again, I guess that's like the rest of medicine these days. Lawyers, accountants, and CEO's deciding to tell us what to 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.
