Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine Special Statement: Checklists for transabdominal cerclage
Abstract
The recent Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine Consult Series #65 provides a comprehensive review of transabdominal cerclage. The current article condenses the Consult recommendations regarding patient selection, counseling, and management into 2 simple one-page checklists, one for the primary obstetrical provider and the other for the maternal-fetal medicine consultant or cerclage provider. Moreover, we provide sample templates for medical record notes to document preprocedure counseling and informed consent.
