Terri:

I would let her attempt a VBAC, and I would augment her if necessary. I don't know anything about your hospital and facilities, but the usual VBAC guidelines apply.

I have always thought that most ruptures occur during the 2nd. stage of labor. In addition, she could have a uterine rupture with augmentation as a G5, regardless of the prior C/S history.

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.
