OR fetal monitoringFrom: Judith Kurokawa (tjkurokawa@mcn.net)Wed May 29 08:25:25 1996
I have a question about current practices. In our small hospital, if a woman requires a csection for non-emergent reasons such as FTP, early labor breech or whatever, our current practice is to use a doppler and auscultate fht every 15 minutes. Csection in this situation usually procedes at leisurly pace. Probably >45 min from decision to incision. A new CNM who almost always uses internal leads desires that the lead be left on and hooked up to monitor, then have OR personell crawl under drapes at last minute to detach lead. Sounds pretty dumb to me but she comes from level 3 operation and says that's the way it's done. Anyhow, I don't want to get in any fusses about this. Would like to know what others do in various situations with FHT monitoring while waiting for csec.

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.
