It always used to be tendonitis, now the change.


And you say extend/extension so why not distend/distension?


When I first started transcribing again after a hiatus of about 15 years, I had to put "distension" in my AutoCorrect so that it would automatically change it to "distention" until I could get used to it.

I hate it when the doctors/PAs prounounce diabetes MELLitus as diabetes mellITUS like it's some kind of inflammation or something. 


From Dorland's.com:


diabetes mellitus (di″ә-be´tēs mel´ĭ-tәs)  


Good grief - you're a highly educated person.  You should know how to pronounce the medical terminology and medications.  Sorry.  Just tired and crabby todayd.

There's an ENT doc who is about to drive me insane! I can't find just one word.
Subject: There's an ENT doc who is about to drive me insane! I can't find just one word.

I've wasted about an hour today looking for this one word the dictator uses over and over. I'll copy the sentence:

"Larynx and pharynx examination reveals normal adenoids, ____________, eustachian tubes, pharyngeal walls, piriform sinuses, epiglottis, false and true cords immobility to mirror and direct laryngoscopy."

The missing word sounds like "coin-ee." I've pulled old reports and everyone has left it out. Also can't tell for sure that he's saying immobility. Doesn't seem like immobility of the vocal cords would be desirable. Shouldn't it be mobility?

Somebody out there must be better at ENT than I.

Pes plano valgus with gastroc constracture, forefoot varus, left side, is correct. Technically, in OP report headings, I was always taught to spell things out like "gsstrocnemius" even if the doc abbreviates because it is a main heading, but it also goes with your account. Hope I have helped!!

I have a dictator today, she is saying, "Review of systems: s/l perinegative except for ...." and, "exam is s/l perinormal with EKG done today showing normal sinus rhythm"


Anyone hear of this "peri"normal "peri"negative and is this how to spell it? Can't find anything conclusive on google in any letter combination I can come up with. 


Thanks for any help.

I just cannot seem to get a grasp of this guy today. Pt is seen for congestive heart failure. Here are the sentences leading up to my problem:


We will check a BMP today to reevaluate renal function and, if he does have a markedly elevated creatinine, we may not be able to do this (referring to 64-slice CT angiography). I am hopeful that, with ___ and renal protection, we can get by with this. We will also plan on checking a TSH and baseline blood work, including a CBC and BNP for outpatient baseline.     


Sounds like mucavest. I then thought of Mucomyst, but would like to know if anyone agrees because it does not make sense to me.


 


Thanks for any help!

ALT L with start numbered list lining them up and ALT L will shut it off.

Or start typing without the numbers, returning as needed and then block listings and ALT L.

Or, type 1, tab and type and when you return for #1 it will give you the number. If it indents, back up to the beginning of one of #1 sentences and SHIFT TAB to move it back the margin.

"On examination today, I did note that he has thickened yellow toenails on both feet. We recommend that he start using ?Clorox? soaks twice weekly as, at this time, oral treatment of this problem is extremely expensive.


I find one reference to this, but did not know how appropriate it would be. He may be saying something more like chloric, but I don't think that is it either. Thanks!
