Description
Comprehensive Review of Obstetrics & Gynecology
The Oakstone Medical’s Comprehensive Review of Obstetrics & Gynecology activity is designed for obstetricians and gynecologists in order to provide a broad and deep all-encompassing review of the specialty. The presentations are devoted half to Obstetrics and half to Gynecology, and the material covers all clinical subspecialty areas of the field: General Gynecology, General Obstetrics, Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility, Maternal-Fetal Medicine, and Gynecologic Oncology. This program will help you take care of your most difficult patients. The speakers are chosen for their clinical excellence as experienced obstetricians/gynecologists and teachers. This will ensure the learners will receive a thorough understanding of the current thinking in obstetric and gynecologic diagnostic skills and management/treatment decision making. As Obstetrics & Gynecology is a surgical specialty, as well as a primary care specialty, surgical
techniques and primary patient management are both emphasized.
Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy
Preeclampsia, a disorder of implantation/placentation, remains a major cause of maternal and perinatal mortality/morbidity. While delivery is the only curative treatment, a healthy respect for this condition, coupled with aggressive and early intervention of complication, may minimize adverse events.
Intended Audience
Comprehensive Review of Obstetrics & Gynecology
Obstetricians and Gynecologists seeking a comprehensive overview of the entire specialty while seeking to attain CME credits for continued licensure. Family physicians will also benefit from these overviews.

Program Objectives
Comprehensive Review of Obstetrics & Gynecology
After viewing this activity, participants should be able to:
- Translate advances in minimally invasive surgery into gynecologic practice including: laparoscopic total and supracervical hysterectomy, endometrial ablation, hysteroscopic myomectomy, hysteroscopic tubal occlusion, uterine artery embolization, single port laparoscopic surgery, robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery, and laparoscopic myomectomy
- Devise a clear and rational plan for themanagement of specific pregnancy complications
- Evaluate and diagnose pregnancy complications in both high-risk and low-risk populations, including: maternal thyroid deficiency, preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, obesity, andmultiple gestation
- Appropriately prescribe medication that are available for use in gynecologic practice including: drospirenone, raloxifene, intravenous bisphosphonate, denosumab, misoprostol, metformin, spironolactone, eflornithine, and tranexamic acid
- Describe the methods for prenatal diagnosis: advanced maternal age, genetic screening, ultrasound
Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy
- Given that fetal survival rates are jeopardized by early delivery, learners will be able to differentiate between mild and severe preeclampsia so that only in cases of severe preeclampsia would immediate delivery be prescribed.
- Given that the HELLP Syndrome is a serious complication of preeclampsia, learners will develop a heightened awareness for this syndrome not just pre-delivery but for the post-partum patient, so that HELLP-related maternal mortality rates may be significantly reduced.
- Given that there are numerous causes for seizures among pregnant women, learners will become more competent at the process of differentiating eclampsia from other generalized tonic-clonic seizures so that instances of unnecessary, immediate fetal deliveries can be reduced or eliminated.
- Given that diagnosis of severe preeclampsia can have significant ramifications on both maternal and fetal health, learners will recognize when exceptions to the ‘immediate delivery rule’ may apply to the management of mother and fetus.
