I have used it many times in select patients who I feel quite strongly (despite lack of randomization/RTCs etc) were spared the old Bard/Parker because of it. They all laugh until you get a nice vaginal delivery, while the naysayers are hysterotomizing (is that a verb?) away. Hugo -- Hugo 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.
