I had not thrown this out, but I noticed no one else said anything. So anomalies of the mouth (clefts), esophagus (tracheoesophageal fistulas), or esophageal atresias. Also neurologic problems that might affect the autonomic swallowing response. > >I am not sure about Polyhy as it relates to BPP. > >Terry J.

In july two articles suggested oligo might be less important yet another showed a significant import with borderline amt of af. also - as you suggest, the definition of oligo seems to vary from study to study. where is your reference on your work with cerebro - umbilical differences. Could not find this. and what about the significance of poly? should not the interpretation of bpp take the negative impact of poly into account? I have not found fetal breathing all that useful, especially in diabetics whose glucose seems to stimulate breathing. look forward to hearing from you. > > Art > > At Wed, 25 Aug 1999, James S Smeltzer MD wrote: > > > >Art, Next message: amany: "Re: Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII" Previous message: art fougner, md: "Re: FW: NYTimes article on Suing HMOs"

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.
