Re: Polyhydramnios treated with calcium/magnesium From: Antonio Valdez (avaldez@infolnk.net) Mon Dec 21 18:40:06 1998 Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Garry E. Siegel, M.D.: "OB: Previous PIH/Lumbar Disc Disease (long)" Previous message: Roberta Speyer: "OBGYN.net Menopause and Perimenopause UPDATE" In reply to: Gloria Lemay: "Polyhydramnios treated with calcium/magnesium" I wonder if anyone has had experience or could point me to >studies that link cal/mag vitamin supplementation and polyhydramnios. I'm sure that the cal/mag vitamin was indicated for the leg cramps; not for the polihydramnios... BTW; why to wait until 43 weeks if you have an obstetrical complication like polyhydramnios??? The way I use to manage this cases is: - Amniocentesis to decompress acording to maternal symptoms (dispnea) or previus to induce her at term - Indomethacine with carefully survillence of the fetal status - And NOT only 50g-glucosa test; 3 hours glucosa tolerance test -- Antonio Valdez-Torres MD FACOG Hospital Guernika Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua.

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.
