'tissue glue'.........

'tissue glue' repair with Indermil.
From Google:
Some minor cuts can be closed with special adhesive tapes (Steri-Strips) or tissue glue (Dermabond or Indermil). Tissue glue can be used as a barrier against common bacterial microbes. Be sure to inform the doctor if you have any allergies to these adhesive tapes.
s/l Everseal fibrin glue
Subject: s/l Everseal fibrin glue
I'm doing a reduction mammoplasty and liposuction procedure report, and the doc uses some sort of fibrin glue sealant that sounds like Everseal. I've googled using various spellings and cannot document this term. Is anyone familiar with it?

sniff test
Subject: sniff test
It is sniff test, also known as whiff test
yes, sniff test....
Subject: yes, sniff test....
The diagnosis of this common condition is especially easy if the patient mentions a fishy or ammonia-like smell immediately after intercourse. In cases of Gardnerella infection, ammonia is released by the alkaline nature of semen--a purely chemical reaction.
This is the basis of the well known "sniff test," wherein a drop of potassium hydroxide is added to a drop of vaginal secretion on a slide and held to the nose. The other test is the microscopic examination of the vaginal smear. The "clue" cells: Shed vaginal epithelial cells, studded with Gardnerella organisms, are very characteristic. So to is the abundance of other frequently associated bacteria having pleomorphic coccobacillary shapes.
hope that helps :)

Is this correct? He says she has a thick yellow-gray discharge and a positive sniff test. Is it sniff, SNIFF or what. I surely hope this is not the literal meaning of sniff!! lol What a terrible job to have!

Ain't got nun and ain't gonna get nun...
Subject: Ain't got nun and ain't gonna get nun...
Sorry...excerpt from an old joke I heard at a comedy club in Boston once.
You are hearing it correctly. Some people will refer to a preist or a nun as "Father" or "Sister" and leave out their name. I met a priest once (just once) and I referred to him as just "Father" when I thanked him for doing whatever it is he did at my mother's wake. (Can you tell I'm not religious?) I didn't know his name or anything, and besides, that's what I heard everyone else around me call him.
I think the name Mary is just one of those many "good Irish-Catholic names"...kind of like the one I got stuck with but instead bury it with the name "Hayseed."

I don't think there's a way to determine for sure. The fact that "another doctor" said it was ACL doesn't mean that's what they've decided the problem is. On the other hand, he could have switched "ACL" with "LCL" (like they always do right and left, metatarsal/metacarpal, etc.) Don't think there's a way to tell for sure. Sorry!
wanna, gonna, he's
Subject: wanna, gonna, he's
When i first got this account, I expanded contractions. Today I received a memo that I was supposed to type all words verbatim and not to add any extra words. I stopped expanding contractions, but this doctor is saying things like wanna, gonna, he's, there's... and then sometimes says want to, going to, he is, there is...
I feel so silly typing "gonna" and "wanna." Am I right to type these like this?

This is gonna sound nuts, but I knew a Clac product
Subject: This is gonna sound nuts, but I knew a Clac product
It was not a medication, rather an "environmentally friendly" fly repellent used on livestock and pets. Here's a link to one of the product sites I found it on: https://www.smartpakcanine.com/productclass.aspx?productClassId=1518&GCID=C11284x040
They no longer use the Clac name and have since renamed it Deo-Lotion.
I'll be interested on hearing what you finally find out about your patient!
