Stedmans Med & Surgical Equip words and Tessiers Surgical Word Book (3rd Ed). I'd be lost
without them.
Lots of 'em, but use a Lab Words, Sted's Ortho/Rehab Words, & Tessier's Surgical Words most

Updating surgical references - new Stedmans Word Book, Tessier Surgery Book or others - best one in

Stedman's Medical and Surgical Equipment Words is invaluable. nm

The Surgical Word Book
is the best! I do almost exclusively OP notes and I couldn't do it without this book. Steadman's is also excellent, but if you get Steadmans you will have to get two books (Equipment Words and Surgery Words). The Surgical Word Book has both together in one book. 
If you mean the Surgical Word Book, it's the best! nm

I just use the surgical word book. There
are three pages of bandages in there.
The Surgical Word Book is the Bomb for me!
It has so much in it besides surgical stuff. I then use Quick Look Drug Book, Stedman's Dictionary, and Sloane's Med Word Book. I love books but Google as well - usually double reference. And, let me not forget, the BOS2
I agree. Best surgical word book!!!!! nm

Sounds like my Surgical Word Book sm
by Claudia Tessier.
Two: Dorlands and The Surgical Word Book -- SM
I use secure online reference sites for everything else.
Surgical Word Book (Tessier, NOT Stedman's). nm

Tessier's as mentioned & Surgical Word Book
By far, Tessier Surgical Word Book! The Bomb!

Tessier's Surgical Word book is great for ops

Medical Word Book by Sloan, Surgical Word Book by sm
Tessier, Dorland's dictionary, BOS, and my very fave I think is now out of print but called Spellright by Rice.
The Surgical Word Book by Claudia Tessier (see message)
is set up like that. It is black with silver and GREEN lettering.
Love, love, LOVE this book! Good luck!
Also onelook.com as the Dorland's links right off there. Book would be Tessier's Surgical Word

The Sted's Ortho & Rehab Words is probably my most used book and then the Lab Words book. GL! nm

You'll need a lab words book and maybe the Derm and Immunology Words..nm

does anyone have good links for lab/path words and
equipment words and pharmaceutical words? I hate to spend so much on books that can't be kept current. I found accessdata.fda.gov and rxlist.com in a post farther down and already have them book marked. TIA!
I would buy new a Dorland's Medical Dictionary, Stedmans Medical and Surgical Equipment...SM
and Tessier's The Surgical Word Book, 3rd edition. Books you could buy used I would say would be Stedman's Pathology and Lab Medicine and Cardiology/Pulmonary word book. These are all the books I use the most during my day. You could buy other speciality word books as you need them and could probably go used with those.
I wouldn't bother with buying a drug book, new editions come out every year and I just stick to the FDA website and RXList as my drug references.
Also FYI, not a book, but I use my Stedman's Electronic Medical Dictationary a lot. It's easier to open the program than it is to pick up a huge 30-pound dictionary.
Stedmans GI & GU words
third edeition Is a good one. Been doing nephrology for 7 years email if you need to.
All different word books, surgical
A dictionary is not going to be near enough for acute care. You're going to come across many different instruments, techniques, procedures, etc.
The "particular" factor will relate to the client's specific instructions, i.e. expanding, not expanding, symbols, most likely BOS compliant, verbatim, etc.
Stedman's Orthopedic & Rehab Words, both on CD and book
With the CD, all you do is highlight the word and click on the icon.
My Sted's Ortho & Rehab Words book is the most worn out. Love it! nm

I like drug books even though you can access sites on line. A lab book, the Sted's Ortho Words, a

Don't buy Stedmans Path/Lab CD!
I'm SO mad at Stedman's! I finally decided to go electronic and bought a med/surg equip CD and a path/lab CD. No problems with the former, but the latter will not work and disables MS Word! And I'm not the only one, as you can Google it on the internet and others are having the same problems. Somehow it interacts wrongly with different virus/spam protectors and will start throwing pages and pages of licensing cleanup alerts into your task manager, disabling your word processing. I called tech support last Friday and they said they'd get back to me. I called them back Tuesday and they said they still hadn't figured it out. I called them today, still nothing, so I got mad and returned the stupid CD for the book. Six days of "trying to figure it out"???? He had said before they could install an unlicensed copy since the licensing was the problem, but then days later said they couldn't figure it out.
They also send you an invoice saying your payment is due by X date (with the return envelope and the space to fill in how much you are paying of the total) when you've already paid by credit card. They also charged almost $20 shipping for 4 CDs that weigh a few ounces. I'm NOT happy!
Gotta get the Stedman's Ortho & Rehab Words. Wheeless encylopedia is a good site to book

deleting words from word dictionary
Hi there. Does anyone know how to delete words from Word 2000 that I haven't added. They have words like wit in there and I would like to access their dictionary and get rid of some of them as I make common errors of some words. Thanks for any help.
Some single words, but mostly 2-3 word phrases.
I have a few full sentences, too, but with so many different doctors, I tend to stick to the more commonly used short phrases, and build sentences & paragraphs from those.
Can someone please tell me what $5.00/1000 words converts to in cpl when 5.5 char=1 word? nm Thanks!
Many words are formed with a base word with a prefix or a sm
suffix or both and are not picked up in spell check. Arousable is a word formed by combining arouse with the suffix -able and in this case the E is dropped and the able is added. This has been going on for a long time and like the above poster says, many of these forms are not in spell check.
surgical terms
Why don't you invest in ref. books? Trying to do this job without them is like trying to build a house without a hammer for goodness sake. I don't understand you people - always looking for top pay and taking the cheap way out to do your job without proper tools.
Surgical Transcription
Hello. A local surgery hosptial is hiring im my area. I've been transcribing psych and technical material for 6 years. Anyone know of good web sites for daily surgical transcription, what to expect in common surgeries and any resources for surgery brush up?
Thanks
Surgical account..
I am trying to get a local surgical account but my problem is they currenlty send their dictation overseas. However, they are having to pay their nurses extra to edit/correct them because the finished report is of very poor quality. Here are my questions....Does anyone know how the average of what companies pay for overseas transcription? I don't want to sell myself short but I also don't want to work for nothing. Do I have an advantage because I am local and will provide a "finished" correct report? I am getting a proposal ready and want to make sure I have covered everything. Thanks
Surgical accounts
I have two surgeons, surgical-oncology and I charge 0.12 cpl gross lines with pick up, print and deliver. I do about 10,000 to 12,000 lines per month. Very few procedures but lots of consults. H&P's and letters where I make my money. Can do close to 500 lines per hour with them.
Surgical margin
"if-nas-co" surgical margin negative for tumor. Pleural fibrovascular adhesion was mentioned just before that. Any thoughts as to what "if-nas-co" actually is?
When is a word only 5 characters. I thought 7-10 was an average and 10 words a line? nm

Have you heard this word on CNN? NO! It is an obscenity, and there are plenty of awful words SM
You can search and find just about anything in print if you look hard enough. No newscaster on CNN would utter this filth. Obscenities are not allowed on MT Stars and this word is obscene. Your example is flawed. I have no problem hearing and typing words related to the human body when spoken by a physician to document a patient's care. That is a far cry from this nasty little "headline." NO ONE should defend this racial epithet and no one needs this little lesson in netiquette. Shame on you and OP if you are not the same one.
Surgical nursing books.

IMO, yes. I would love to be a surgical tech.
No money for school, nobody to make the house payment while I'm in school (if I had money to go), etc., etc. I'll be toughing it out for 11 more years till the house is paid off.
Surgical removal of a baby????
I had that one yesterday and thought how strange to work delivery that way. If you ever work on Escription you will get a lot of laughs - it is voice recognition and I have had a ROS that said the man came in through the garage until the cat fell from the sky - have no idea what that was supposed to mean.
I agree = cervical not surgical
Buy a Stedman's Medical and Surgical
Equipment Words book. One of the best references around.
surgical equipment info is good
nm
need a good surgical equipment website, anyone have one
Any help would be needed. Learning to do acute care ops - and need some good surgical equipment sites.
Thanks
