Re: 13 year old in the OR for C-secFrom: Ruggi002@aol.comTue Mar 19 18:27:30 1996
Marc, Our policy (and from the nearby area too!) is that a support person or persons can be present, but it must be acceptable to both the operating physician and the MDA. A "support" person does need to be there for the support person - a member of the birthing services staff per policy; we usually use our aide (She about 4' 10" - not much support). Another policy says that someone other than the patient's sig other must be present for child observing a birth (vag or CB) - in case the birth was too overwhelming for them. I would want to know that the child was prepared for what would be happening and that this was the child's desire as well as the mother's/ Evelyn Ruggiero RNC, MS CNS - Birthing Services United Hospital St. Paul, MN

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.
