<<I am aware of no literature studies of MidLine vs MedioLateral. Notice both are MLE so lets spell this one out on future communications. Mediolaterals went out of style 25 years ago. Nobody did midlines before then and nobody has done mediolaterals since. I think it would be impossible to get a good control study.>>

I just found out that some people DO still do mediolaterals. The residents at a program I just visited (I won't say WHERE) told me that their UROGYNs tell them to do mediolaterals, to avoid the rectum. (And you can't say these are uncaring male chauvinists who don't feel the patients' pain - my understanding was that the urogyns in this place were women).

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.
