Re: Abnormal triple screenFrom: Gary Kleinman (fuf@ix17.ix.netcom.com)Thu Feb 26 12:24:59 1998
>> >If the baby is vertex at the time of sonogram, you could try transvaginal >scan to evaluate the face. > >Robert Brenner MD FACOG Thanks. The baby is breech. The literature search seems to show that HCG MoM's above 5are associated with Turner's syndrome, triploidy, non-immune hydrops, preeclampsia, IUGR and fetal demise. We will follow growth carefully. BTW, our lab reported an NTD risk of 1/240 and a tri 18 risk of 1/77106 (I guess I'm a bit sad they cant give it to me to another decimal place). They dont report a tri 21 risk if the NTD risk is high. Why? Idont know. Managed care contracts say all triple screens in the area go to them. Allan: could you fill me in on what is in the "quadruple screen"? Obviously, with our designated local lab getting all the specimens, we will be last to get any innovations. Thanks all for your replies. I will give you follow up as soon as it is availble. Gary

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.
