Re: : : Ob: Trial of ForcepsFrom: Garry E. Siegel, M.D. (garrys@mindspring.com)Fri Oct 8 21:21:29 1999
In Atlanta, the world headquarters of Coca-Cola, you take a walk and drink and diet *coke*! However, this woman was on 24 milliunits of pit, and had been pushing for 1 hour 45 minutes (epidural) with excellent effort, and the fetal heart tones were acting up a bit, and she had a temp of 101 degrees that just started. I felt that delivery, not expectant management, was warranted. If she didn't have the temp, and had a normal tracing, I would have acted at 2 hours anyway, or maybe gone a bit longer (the walk and diet coke, or read the newspaper). Garry

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.
