Used in radiofrequency ablation of saphenous vein. I can hear a "6" but not so sure of the "vent" part. The "6-vent" sheath was inserted over the guide wire. Anyone heard of this?
Thanks!

I cannot believe the literacy levels of the doctors coming out of medical school these days. I have one doc who doesn't know the difference between "calculus" and "calculi." He uses "calculi" every time, even when there is only one stone.
And another - OMG!! - she uses "nephrolithasis" interchangeably with "calculus" - as in, "There is a nephrolithiasis in the right kidney."
DRIVES ME BATTY!!!!

To QA- I understand what verbatim means-you do not need to tell me, and especially not with sarcasm and bossiness. The word(s) you added were not in the dictation. In other words, what you apparently heard is not what I heard.
Thanks, I feel better.

Subject: Omni-Vent is a definite...I told you
I was not sure about Nasonex. Since I have no work until 9 AM and I get up early, I try to help people with only the terminology I know. Otherwise I do not post. I'm sorry I could not answer your question of Nasonex, but like I said, that is the only thing that comes to mind. I looked in my drug books and found nothing other than that. I looked in my ENT book as it has drugs listed and again nothing. I have done a lot of research for you, be a little more appreciative. Sounds like I got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. Good luck with your search. Perhaps someone else can help you and that is your best bet when people start getting on.
I would spell it out, pulmonary arterial vent - sm
Subject: I would spell it out, pulmonary arterial vent - sm
My department would not allow us to use made up words or slang, so I would spell it out as pulmonary arterial vent, or pulmonary artery vent, and I'm not even sure about the vent. Maybe it should actually be ventilation. I'd have to see the context.

The doctor spells this out more than once during the report but I've never heard this term before, my medical spellchecker doesn't recognize it, and I can't verify it on Google. Any help would be great!
Following the percutaneous intervention and completion arteriogram of the right external iliac artery, the wires catheters were withdrawn. Please note also just prior to the percutaneous intervention, a full dose of systemic intravenous heparin was given and an ACT was maintained above 200. In addition the short 5 French sheath was changed out over a Magic Torque wire to a long 6 French "raabe" sheath. Following the intervention, the long sheath was then exchanged over the same wire to a short 6 French sheath.
