Re: beta strep screeningFrom: MNudel@aol.comThu Nov 7 09:51:47 1996
Just over this past summer I know of 2 separate cases of term babies with neg 35-37 week cultures without risk factors in labor who developed full blown Group B strep sepsis at our hospital after delivery. One is on echmo the other died. This tells me two things. 1. This protocol is far from perfect 2. Anyone not following the test and treat protocol is hanging by an extremely thin thread if they have a GBS baby. Even though it may not have been preventable even with the protocol as in 1. above, you can bet you'll be held to that standard. Mitch

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.
