Inductions, macrosomia, and a questionFrom: Anna Nickels (102476.2066@CompuServe.COM)Fri Apr 26 08:50:12 1996
Fellow netters: I have read all of your comments regarding induction and fetal macrosomia and would like to say that it is a pleasure to "know" you. It is so refreshing to see doctors with the attitude that all patients do not need scheduled intervention. Several of the doctors where I used to work schedule inductions for "fetal macrosomia" for 1-2 DAYS post EDC when the patient is 24-28 weeks. We L&D nurses all FOFL and place bets on how "macrosomic" this baby will be if the doc can tell that there's fetal macrosomia at this point!! Now for my question---one of the current threads on the PNATALRN list is about redheads and the incidence of increased bleeding. Someone said that she'd heard this and wanted to know the background of this "myth". Every nurse responding supports this "myth"...with 19 years experience, I certainly do. However, in the pursuit of scientific truth, I would like to ask if anyone out there can provide evidence (more that anecdotal), studies, publications... If you can shed some light for us, please respond to the list (if you think there's interest) or privately. TIA Anna Romig Nickels, RNC, BSN AWHONN Senior Practice Specialist 202-662-1638 Washington, DC 102476.2066@Compuserve

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.
