Sorry Margie, tight shoulders, no permanent Erb's palsy, no fetal injury, no Zavinelli maneuver, does not make a "true" shoulder dystocia. Someone's sphincter has got to go in the case of "true" shoulder dystocia, be it the provider or the "client", as the midwives so love to say. Until you have really been there, your comments will be judged accordingly. Ron

Sorry Ron, but I have had "true" shoulder dystocias and I have also never had a third or fourth degree episiotomy or laceration from the dystocia or from the maneuvers involved in resolving the dystocia, and usually it has been with an intact perineum. It can happen!

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.
