We don't do pelvimetry at all here any more as it make absolutely no difference in the eventual mode of delivery. X-Ray pelvimetry can help you for documentary purposes.

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.
