?? Elective EpisiotomyFrom: D.Ingham RM (ray.ingham@virgin.net)Wed Mar 24 14:31:05 1999
A lady in my care, G3P2, is now 30/52 gestation. During her first delivery she had an episiotomy and a further 3rd degree tear (involving anal sphincter and taking six months to heal) For her second delivery her OB advised an elective episiotomy, which was done but she also had a tear along the previous tear site, although not 3rd degree. She is now keen to avoid another episiotomy. Is an elective episiotomy advisable again? thanks Debbie

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.
