s/l meniscus test during Veress needle insertion for laparoscopy?
Subject: s/l meniscus test during Veress needle insertion for laparoscopy?

Help..... Sounds like meniscus. Very clear.


 


The HUMI was then placed without complication. We changed our gloves and went up above. An incision was made in the infraumbilical portion with the scalpel. A Veress needle was placed and no complications with that. The *meniscus test was positive. Carbon dioxide gas was used to establish a pneumoperitoneum with approximately 50 mmHg with 2.1 L of gas.  OB/GYN

? on Bookwalter, Veress, etc.
Subject: ? on Bookwalter, Veress, etc.

Can someone help me verify for the last time (hopefully) which is absolutely correct for these:


1.  Bookwalter/Buchwalter retractor.


2.  Veress needle.


3.  Steffee/Steffe.


Between QA and my having changed it 2-3 times, I just don't know for sure.  Reading the posts don't have me certain enough to change my expanders, etc.


What a dirty trick to change spellings like this to veterans who took off a short time!


Lastly, if I missed any other(s), I'd be eternally grateful!


Thanks!
