Re: Instilling milk in bladderFrom: Philip Suarez, M.D. (philip@ICSI.Net)Thu Jul 25 12:48:17 1996

The sterile milk is easily seen if there is a defect in the bladder. Then, after repairing the defect, the formula can easily be washed away and the bladder refilled with more. Methylene blue stains the tissue and it is difficult to wash away for the second check...

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.
