A New Twist

Recal Information Services

This can be very crippling disease.  I have a friend who is only 33 and cannot even scratch her own nose.  She cannot turn over in bed or do anything for herself.  It is a progressive illness.  When she was little, she could walk and do everything a normal child could and by the time she was a teenager she was in a wheelchair.  Now she is completely disabled.

.

May I bring my own reference materials?
Reference materials are not allowed in the testing center, and none will be provided. Electronic aids such as spellcheckers and abbreviation expanders will not be permitted. One of the consequences of using secure testing centers is the elimination of reference materials. However, the exam has been designed so that a level 2 medical transcriptionist (as defined in AAMT’s "MT Job Descriptions") can pass using their critical thinking and problem solving skills and without using any reference materials.

Do I need to find my own proctor?
No. The new exam is being delivered at proctored testing centers.

The nitroskaph had allowed the retraction to lateralize.

Talking about doing a myringotomy.

The patient had lateral split depression fracture of tibial plateau and was diagnosed wtih shatzka type 2 fracture. 

Thanks

BREASTS:             Fails to reveal any evidence of cellulitis.  Her ______ cath is in place. 

THANKS A MILLION!

All I can give is this:

HEENT:  No (s/l: a-la-fearing) pinkish conjunctiva. 

(the patient has active airway disease and is in recovery using Albuterol MDI and Z-pack antibiotics. after that statement she moves on to the rest of the review.)

malampoti??? classification III, visualization of the soft palate in the base of the uvula only.

Could maybe be saying CII for continuous insulin infusion?  Are they trying to control glucose?

I find that no matter how many times I  think I know this, it always gets me sooner or later, usually on the last thing I am typing for the day!!

Here is a link. Hope it helps.

The patient was reported to be on 20 mg of polydall b.i.d and 2 mg Cogentin b.i.d. in his board and care.

He later refers to, what sounds like, Hollydall.  Could it be Haldol?

Tp has been seen by me for traumatic amputation of the right great toe.  She has also had multiple fractures and S/L-wallowing or wallring- of the second toe as well as metatarsal.  She is currently walking full weightbearing.  She is doing quite well.  However, there is a mild deformity of the second toe. 

 X-rays done today show that there is a nonunion.  Clinically, this is stiff, so this is a stiff nonunion and S/L-wallowing or wallring- of the second toe.  This is involving the middle phalanx.
