I'd agree with you. Only difference would be I think recurrence risk is lower, but am aware some "authorities" quote a similar figure. >

Not after one episode of pre-eclampsia. If recurred or it arose in a second (or later) pregnancy after previous normal pregnancy.

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.
