Post C-SectionFrom: M Buchanan-DeLamar (75640.2506@compuserve.com)Tue Aug 4 18:38:26 1998
Sonographer's and Ob/Gyn Doctors out there, I has a question but I may not have enough information to get a good answer. Last night I was on ultrasound call and at 9pm I was called in to do a exam on the uterus on an OB patient who had just had a C-Section. The reason I was given was to check the location or postion of the uterus??? Then when I got to the hospital and called L &D to get the name of the patient I was told "weren't you called back"....the exam was canceled.....the ob/gyn had found what she was looking for...the head ob nurse gives me lots more information and is more familiar with what we want to know for u/s exams. I didn't see the ob/gyn today to find out what was going on. In the past the few post c-section exams I have done have been several days or longer later looking for abcesses, fluid accumulations, or evaluate uterus for possible retained contents. Maybe I've just been lucky until now...all I could think of was what kind of difficulties I was going to run into to cause artifact, etc. What have any of you had to perform u/s exams for immediately after a c-section or what have any of you ob/gyns doctor's out there ordered one immediately post c-section for .....or was this just just some whelm to get me out . I got called out again later anyway for Radiology backup call due to a MVA so it wasn't meant for me to get much sleep last night. Mary Ann
