That's pretty much the way we do things around these parts. This is one of the few uses of the scalp pH machine that I have found. I do less than 5 of these a year (out of about 300 deliveries), but I am always glad to have the machine hanging around (calibrated, of course) for this situation. Ashley D.

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.
