Amy Krueger et al. the study population was similar to the overall ACOG mem- bership and we were able to identify subject areas where con- tinuing education would be beneﬁcial. Another limitation is the lack of a ﬁxed denominator. For some questionnaires, not all participants completed all the questions. This could also aﬀect the estimate of the knowledge of the physicians. 9. EDUCATION Through the survey, we found that over 41% of obstetrician- gynecologists use journals as their main source of new in- formation. Approximately, half of the participants also ex- pressed interest in featured articles by ACOG as a way to im- part educational material. Results from our survey will be used to inform ACOG fellows through reports such as this one.
