It is plural not pleural! LOL. But I think of it as singular because small and large are adjectives describing the same bowel. If you were prepping the arm for surgery, you would put the upper and lower arm WAS prepped, not the upper and lower arms WERE prepped.

op notes
Subject: op notes

I have never encountered such a rule. I don't generally listen to where the dictators want their paragraphs, though. They usually put in way too many. I start a new paragraph after the prep and drape description and a I start a new paragraph for the closing of the wounds. I add new paragraphs when the surgeon is addressing a new area. That's just my style of transcribing. I'm not saying it's the right way to do it. It just makes sense to me and I would think it is easier to read and comprehend that way.

Resources for OP notes?
Subject: Resources for OP notes?

 


Is there anyone here who does operative notes and gynecology notes who could give me some websites to use for resources?  I am on an OB/GYN account and have operative notes.  I have trouble sometimes with the specific surgical instrument names and would greatly appreciate any help.  Thanks in advance.

My suggestion would be to purchase (if you do not already have)OB/GYN, equipment and surgical word books (Steadman's) my choice and you would be equipped to better perform your job.

Paragraphs in Op notes
Subject: Paragraphs in Op notes

I have noticed that when I transcribe an Op note as the dictator dictates it, starting a new paragraph as dictated...that QA always removes the spacing between the paragraphs.

Is there some rule in transcription that you don't break an op note into paragraphs? The client profile does not say anything about this.
SOAP notes
Subject: SOAP notes

Was wondering if there are any websites out there that gives sample reports for SOAP notes. Just trying to figure out which is the best way to do it with paragraphs between each heading or all scrunched together. Just want to see what is done more of. I realize it might depend on the clinic, dr, hospital, etc, but just want to get an idea.


Thanks Carla
