Elevated bilirubin disease?
Subject: Elevated bilirubin disease?
I cannot find this disease since I am not sure what the first few letters clearly are, maybe a French name, again not sure. The patient has an elevated bilirubin, abdominal pain and vomiting. The doc suspects this disease rather than an obstruction. The disease s/l Jobear's or Joulbar's or Yolbear's.

I think you're looking for Gilbert syndrome. A French pronunciation would sound like what you're hearing. It's an error in bilirubin metabolism.
can you have excess bilirubin in the urine?
Subject: can you have excess bilirubin in the urine?
I really don't know. Listen carefully, though, and make sure the doc is not saying "emia" instead of "uria" at the end of it.
urinalysis high bilirubin Ictotest?
Subject: urinalysis high bilirubin Ictotest?
It sounds like "EYE-co-test" the way it's pronounced by my Latin dictator, but I found Ictotest in Saunders pharm Word Book, but did n't find it at Drugs.com which is usually pretty reliable. Has anyone heard of this?
bilirubin level -infant jaundice
Subject: bilirubin level -infant jaundice
This is a 4 day old infant with jaundice. The doctor states the baby has rising "transbutating"? bilirubin levels. I cannot catch the "trans" word- it sounds like transmutating, transfutating... Any ideas?

I'm doing a Review of Records list, and it says Request for AX to refer PT to a "Psych." I was thinking it meant access, but I don't know if that would make sense. Anybody know what AX stands for in this example? Thanks!
P.S. If it's obvious, bear with me, I'm a newbie still. LOL
short example
Subject: short example
All four patients initially underwent surgical excisions of the pilonidal cyst followed by primary closure of the wound and application of a penrose drain. Pre-operative antibiotic treatment followed by a 10-day post-operative antibiotic course was used. Intra-operative identification of the sinus tract was made using a lacrimal probe and methylene blue injection of the sinus tract opening. Closure of the wound was accomplished with a subcutaneous 3-0 vicryl suture followed by a subcuticular 4-0 vicryl reinforced with 3-0 nylon interrupted suture. All procedures were done as same-day surgery. The drain had been pulled on initial follow-up within seven days on all the patients.

I doubt you could get all that with one keystroke. I don't have anything with just one key stroke. You could, however, try something like endx that is 4 strokes, but the whole thing would pop out. Here is what I do cad = CAD, cadx = coronary artery disease, and so on.

Got to have at least a whole sentence or you would be getting guesses at best. Try to include as much a scenario as you can in your questions. Key is to be accurate, no guesstimations allowed!! At least in MHO (my humble opinion).
