>I have never heard the term "OB TECHS" used .Is there a new category of " At two of the hospitals where I have worked, there has been an "OB tech" on staff. This is the person responsible for stocking rooms, monitoring supplies, ordering supplies, serving as scrub tech (in substitution for a scrub nurse) during Cesareans, and assisting in a general way with deliveries. They come in to give the RN an extra hand before, during, and after the birth. A good OB tech is an invaluable asset to a Labor and Delivery unit. They are never responsible for reading monitor strips, administering medications, or replacing other skilled nursing duties. Cheri Van Hoover, CNM Kaiser Hospital Redwood City, CA

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.
