AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)<br />
The American College of Surgeons designates Frontiers of Science: Prenatal<br />
Stress and Adverse Pregnancy and Child Health Outcomes <strong>for</strong> a maximum<br />
of 3.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits. Physicians should only claim credit<br />
commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.<br />
Learning Objectives<br />

physiological processes in human pregnancy<br />
• To understand the issues and challenges of conceptualization and assessment<br />
of self-reported and biologic measures of maternal stress<br />
• To discuss the associations between maternal stress and adverse pregnancy<br />
outcomes<br />
• To explore the role of maternal stress in fetal programming and the<br />
developmental origins of adult disease<br />

• What makes a good review<br />
• What makes a good reviewer<br />
• The value of reviewing to the individual and the specialty and ultimately<br />
the patient<br />
• Online mechanics of per<strong>for</strong>ming the review<br />

AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)<br />
The American College of Surgeons designates Debates: Ultrasound Controversies<br />
<strong>for</strong> a maximum of 7 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits. Physicians should only claim<br />
credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.<br />
Learning Objectives<br />
• Discuss the role of a simplified and efficient multi-parameter approach to<br />
screen <strong>for</strong> adverse outcomes such as preeclampsia<br />
• Describe a targeted and evidence-based approach to Doppler interrogation of<br />
fetuses with IUGR<br />
• Understand the methods of identifying pregnancies that would benefit most<br />
from cervical length assessment<br />
• Describe the best approach to counseling about the role of minor findings<br />
during ultrasound in aneuploidy screening<br />
• Understand a targeted approach to the use of adjunctive imaging modalities<br />
in the evaluation of fetuses with CNS anomalies<br />
• Design a reliable protocol <strong>for</strong> triaging and managing cases of TTTS based<br />
stage of the disease<br />
