2 comments re your dilemma: 1. We recently completed an audit of about 5-6 years of amnio experience and our miscarriage rate was 0.5%. This included all mishaps following amnio, even if the time span suggested no cause-effect relationship. I quote 1/200 as the risk and everyone in this part of the world (Ontario) does too. 2. I rely heavily on MSS, even to the extent of guiding the >35s out of amnio. Decision making is not easy and I sypathise with your dilemma. I'm glad we had our family before amnio exploded on the scene. Best wishes. Allen.

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.
