For the soft-markers, Roy is preparing an editorial in the JUM that should address this issue and make counseling a lot easier, but here again I think that how you explain things makes a great difference. I have not reported a placental grade in ... 20 years ? And indeed the transient deceleration I consider normal variant, so I am doing the same as you... -----Original Message----- From: ultrasound@obgyn.net [mailto:ultrasound@obgyn.net] On Behalf Of Dave Berck Sent: Friday, February 27, 2004 11:48 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ULTRASOUND Subject: Re: Nuchal Cord I'm with you. I'm troubled by the notion that we are obliged to report findings that are of, at best, questionable significance. Other examples include placental grading, isolated "soft" Downs markers in patients with low T-21 risks after undergoing screening, the occasional observed cardiac deceleration in an otherwise normal fetus, etc. Anyone agree?

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.
