Thanks in advance. No. Vaginal prostaglandin would be my choice. This might diminish the amount of bleeding compared to a spontaneous second trimester abortion in the same situation (with a previa), and even the latter would be managable (but perhaps with a higher risk of needing blood transfusion). -- Mats Bergstrom, MD Ob Gyn South Hospital Stockholm Next message: Ronald Helm: "Re: 20 weeks with PPROM + previa" Previous message: dahmd@gate.net: "20 weeks with PPROM + previa" In reply to: dahmd@gate.net: "20 weeks with PPROM + previa" Next in thread: Ronald Helm: "Re: 20 weeks with PPROM + previa"

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.
