Next in thread: T-H Bui, Clinical Genetics, Karolinska Hospital: "Re: Auntie Em! Auntie Em!" The Ortho antibody index (slide rule) says that Anti-M does not usually result in EBF. For several other antibodies, it says there are no reported cases of EBF secondary to the antibody. To me this means that your patient with Anti-M and an M positive significant other must be watched closely. I would do reg. ultrasound evaluations looking for early evidence of hydrops and perhaps an amnio at 28-30 weeks. I would not subject her to a PUBS. That would certainly be overkill. IOW, you can't tell her it won't cause a problem and you sure can't tell her it will because it possibly could.

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.
