Some docs use apogee or perigee as point of reference in perineal or A/P repair (as in phases of moon, supposedly something to do with shape of perineal body like crescent moon, etc.) It's been years since I had that term in an op note.

Go to google.com and type in bronchoscopy RB2 and you can research it and find out.
I am not intending to be mean but you need to know how to research things you do not know so that you can learn them. Onelook.com is another great resource.

you can use a wildcard "*" to search for a phrase on Google. If you enter "carotid * are brisk" you will get all matches to that phrase. You must use the quotation mark before and after and the wildcard * symbol for the unknown word. Unfortunately Google will not find partial words (yet)...wish it did! Try it, you'll see your "carotid upstrokes are brisk" comes up in quite a few hits.

 Presurgery H&P, patient's medical history is of hypothyroidism, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and stroke. Medications are Monopril, s/l on-gre-nox (heavy Russian accent ESL), and triamterene, s/l siko, lomotil, atenolol, Synthroid, and Asacol. Any ideas on the missing two meds?? Thanks everyone a bunch!

Subject: Found this searching hirsutism on google. sm
Classification of Severity of Hirsutism
In 1961 Ferriman-Galwey published studies on 430 Caucasian women between the ages of 15-74 years based on patients seen in a hospital clinic. The system is based on 11 body sites with a severity score of 0 to 5 for the upper lip, chin, lower back, upper abdomen, arms, forearms, thigh and leg.
Score for the upper lip and chinGrade 1 - a few hairs at the outer part of the upper lip/few scattered hairs on the chin
Grade 2 - small moustache at the outer margins of the upper lip/scattered hair with a small concentration on the chin
Grade 3 -moustache extending halfway from the outer margin of the upper lip/light complete coverage of the chin
Grade 4 -moustache on the entire upper lip/heavy growth on the entire chin

I can only come up with some wild guesses at the moment, such as:
get formolent = ___ for a minute
OR
get formolent = get 4 ____

I wish I could be more help...

Could he/she be saying: Appendectomy, "apparently" 3 D&Cs, tonsillectomy. It doesn't really make sense with the parentheses, makes it sound like the patient had 3 D&Cs at the time of the appendectomy.

The only thing that comes to mind is that he is possibly saying "OC", meaning oral contraceptive. I'd have to blank him if that's not what he says.

Actually after listening to that one at least 50 times, I could get nothing else from it. A Cobb can be a retractor or elevator. In this case, it was used to scrape vertebrae...I did find micro-Cobb. But it really didn't sound a bit like that. Macoa or Mikoa perhaps, but I tried every spelling I could think of. Oh well...it's a mystery, and the report went to proofing, but it left me curious. Thanks!
