AROM- do you do it?

ok got another question.

do nurses in your area perform artifical rupture of membranes?

I was told in some states that RN's properly trained are allowed to do them.

trying to find what states allow this.

can anyone help?

Nurses in Wisconsin don't either.

Not us either, thank goodness!!!

california nurses do not AROM..

No arom at the Jersey shore either !!! Get that doctor up and on the unit, he is getting the big bucks, he might as well get the "glory" too....

Not in Arkansas, but I think Missouri is a yes...

In washington you can arom, in idaho you can only if it is for the purpose of placing a scalp electrode, and only then if you are specially trained.

Not in Scope of Practice for the State of North Carolina

It's o.k. with the California nursing board, but up to hospitals if they let the RN AROM. I do AROM and I have the training. Never AROM with out an order. The fetal head must be fully engaged to keep a cord from prolapsing, and at least 3cm of cervical dilation.
