No personal experience. Have heard Kypros Nicholiades describe fetoscopic clamping of acardiac twin cord.

Have you no-0ne to refer to? If not I'd be inclined to tell her I'd never done cord banding and offer to do it anyway!

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.
