Re: Delivery mode in a patient with a previous rectovaginal From: Rjwoolley@aol.com Fri Aug 29 20:28:46 1997 Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: R. Daniel Braun: "Great Poem" Previous message: Bruce Speyer: "Re: can simply reading an email destroy your machine?" BTW to me a 3rd degree is tear of some or all of the sphincter without tear of the rectal mucosa and a 4th involves the mucosa. How do others define it? ********* I can assure you with great confidence that the vast majority of the research on episiotomies and tears makes no distinction between these. My impression from reading the papers is that most European docs don't routinely make the distinction clinically; it seems to be mostly an American nuance. Next message: R.

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.
