Hi Alesa, I don't recall seeing your initial post, which was very interesting. I wonder how much these machines would cost, and who they would be used upon? I can't see that they could be a main stream thing.... We have several CTGs on our unit, but they are only used on supposed 'high risk' women. These machines would seem to have even more limited use if any. I suppose it would depend on how the company 'sold' them to the medical profession and hospital administrators.
I think the final deciding point would be the women. As Debby said in her initial email, educating women is vital in such situations, and letting them know that they have a choice. Handing this information to consumer groups if a hospital is planning their introduction might also be useful. It is good to be informed so that these new technologies don't catch us out by being in place before we can do anything about it. Thanks for the info, Nicole Carver. -- This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics. Visit <http://www.acegraphics.com.au> to subscribe or unsubscribe.
