    Statement of Needs

    Postgraduate Obstetrics and Gynecology is a biweekly newsletter that meets the clinical needs of practicing clinicians, residents and fellows in training and academic obstetricians and gynecologists who teach in this area.

    Each of the 24 lessons is intended to serve as a contemporary review of pertinent and current topics of interest to OB-GYN practitioners. Teaching departments regularly utilize the lessons as teaching devices directed at their field offices.

    Each issue focuses on a particular clinical issue, such as management of atypical Pap smears; hypertensive disorders associated with pregnancy; emergency contraception; cardiac disease in pregnancy; cystic fibrosis and reproduction; and management of endometrial hyperplasia.

    The lessons are concise and easy to absorb at two-week intervals. Each lesson concludes with a series of challenging multiple-choice questions, which serve to stimulate subscribers while simultaneously providing CME credits.

    The topics are selected and edited by the newsletter's editorial board members. The editorial board has been selected by design to encompass the disciplines of general obstetrics and gynecology as well as these recognized subspecialties: reproductive endocrinology and infertility; maternal-fetal medicine; gynecologic oncology and uro-gynecology; and pelvic floor dysfunction.

    The purpose of the CME program is to publish referenced lessons on clinically relevant topics in obstetrics, gynecology, reproductive endocrinology and infertility, genetics, contraception, menopause and gynecologic oncology.

    For 28 years, the publication has encouraged and supported the concept that the content will positively influence the readers in their provision of high-level health care for their female patients.

    The target audience's need for this continuing medical education activity is supported by documentation provided through a review of medical literature, surveys of the target audience, an analysis of the OB-GYN publishing market and expert opinion.

    In more than two decades of publication, professionals in this field have provided feedback to the editors that the newsletter is an excellent way for them to receive CME credit and that it is one of the best publications of its kind in the marketplace.

    Given increasing clinical demands and reduced time to attend educational meetings, Postgraduate Obstetrics & Gynecology provides a convenient home/office-based alternative for professionals seeking continuing medical education.
