Try DePuy - they make "cat" named spinal devices
Subject: Try DePuy - they make "cat" named spinal devices
Bengal is a spinal implant made of radiolucent carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), a material that has a modulus of elasticity approximating that of cortical bone. The result is an implant that meets the structural requirements of anterior column support, while optimizing the fusion environment through an open, load-sharing design.

Sounds like dictator is saying:
Abdomen: Soft. Flat. Obese. Pressure: Soft. Obese. No point of splenomegaly was noted.
However, it doesn't seem to me that this would fit. He may be saying another heading instead of pressure but it is too jumbled to tell. 
Also this may be: No signs of [something] or splenomegally is noted.
Thanks in advance!
Review of Systems
On Review of Systems, he's saying . . ."@#$#&*&(" : No recent skin rash. and then something else "@#$#$" : No anemia or lymph gland problems. Psychiatric - No recent depression. Can anyone tell me what these headings could possibly be? I can't even get enough to give you a "sounds like".

Any ideas??? Thanks.

names of fingers
Subject: names of fingers
I have always heard the index finger referred to as the trigger finger. Based on the assumption, the trigger/index finger is different than the ring finger. I have never heard any other finger referred to with that label, but that doesn't mean I am right.

Subject: names of fingers
The doctor is referring to the condition "trigger finger", not the index finger. He is saying she has right ring trigger finger. Meaning that finger most likely catches or locks down with movement. I had it also and they surgically released it.
