Ashley, Do you have a protocol in your hospital for misoprostol? Can you email a copy if so? Thanks. Kramers study used previous uterine surgery as exclusion criteria, is anyone at your facility using for VBAC's? If so, any experience in this?

Also, how did you arrive at 600mcg's for the IUFD? Just curious if this was one dose or repeated dosing?

Thanks.

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.
