Whether or not it is used by Obstetricians and Gynaecologists regularly is not very important - nor did I say it was - just that it is a fairly standard journal, and with the exact volume, year and page number as given it is easy to find a reference electronically - but you have to realize that MEDLINE is a bit behind in indexing journals, so that Current Contents is better for recent articles - in case other list members want to know how to search for things that have been published in the last 3 - 6 months.

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.
