I found one paragraph re patients ...sm
Subject: I found one paragraph re patients ...sm

not sure but I found one paragraph thru google about dacron wool........being used on a patient:


Once cooling to -79 C was complete the patient was lifted out of the Silcool bath, the outer, Silcool wetted plastic bag was stripped off and the patient was placed within a polyester cloth bag which was in turn placed inside a standard aluminum neurocan which had been precooled to -90  and packed with dacron
wool.  Temperature probes were left externalized to the neurocan for subsequent cooling to -196 C.


I don't really think this is going to help you though but I tried!!

Vanderbilt form - see inside. Found on Google.
Subject: Vanderbilt form - see inside. Found on Google.

It is recommended that narrow band scales be used in conjunction with questionnaires that assess social and educational impairment and screen for the presence/absence of comorbid psychiatric conditions. Tools that have been developed for efficient use by primary care clinicians in children and adolescents include:
Vanderbilt form: comprehensive form that screens for symptoms, impairment and comorbidity (Wolraich et al., 2003 [C], Wolraich et al., 1998 [C]). Available in the American Academy of Pediatrics/National Initiative for Children’s Health Quality (AAP/NICHQ) ADHD Practitioners’ Toolkit.
Combination of the Conners Scales + DSM-IV checklist + comorbidity screening
For adolescents: add Conners'-Wells' Adolescent Self-Report Scale to one of the above options.

New to this board -- and probably too late answering -- but I noticed no one posted the answer to your question.  The "AFO" is redundant.  Hope this helps for the future!

Try googling H1c, lots of hits  from (apparently) patients.  Also, wondered if slurring could make "an A1c" sound like your HUNC ? Also found at least one reference to histoplasmosis marker of H1C.

Pain scale in leukemia patients
Subject: Pain scale in leukemia patients

Hi,

Is there a pain scale that is commonly referred to for leukemia patients? I'm doing a clinic note on a patient, and in the PE section, I hear something that sounds like ecot 0 (zero). The first thing that pops into my head is Ficat, but I don't think that's what it would be. I often hear doctors mention the pain scale rating right along with the vital signs, and that's where this is dictated. I'm googling and researching this, but I'm not even sure where to look. Any suggestions?
