Find ACOG Guidelines

ACOG Guidelines, officially called "Practice Bulletins" can be useful but hard to locate.  Miner Library has access to content through Obstetrics & Gyneocology Journal through Ovid & the Green Journal directly. So finding a guideline title directly on the ACOG site or via Google is easy but getting the full text may take longer.  Below are step-by-step instructions to use to easily find the guideline AND the full text.

Visit the ACOG Practice Bulletin page. Browse or search for a guideline. 

When found, record the bulletin number (e.g., 148 for 148 Thyroid disease in pregnancy) you may see a link to full text available.

Or you may search via PubMed@UR and search by ti (the title tag) in square brackets e.g., "Obstet Gynecol"[Journal] AND 148[ti]
