I called my consultant from the big city as my backup doc was out of town, and he suggested giving her betamethasone. It was my understanding that the window for betamethasone was 28-32 wks or so, and said so. He said "well it won't hurt anything to give it". So I did, and got her transfered out. Delivered by csec the next morning when she went into labor. Mark Decker Next message: fuf@ix12.ix.netcom.com: "Fetal Board" Previous message: Garry E.

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.
