If you follow either approach recommended by CDC and endorsed by ACOG, you should be fine. By the way, CDC recommends either doing cultures on everybody at 36 weeks and treating all positive patients in labor or treat anyone in the high risk category (preterm delivery, prolonged rupture of membranes beyond 18 hours, intrapartum fever, previous infant with group B strep disease, etc) with antibiotic.

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.
