Are as-needed and over-the-counter ALWAYS capitalized in reports?  Is this per the BOS?  Can't find it and new QA is hyphenating them anywhere and everywhere used.

Turns out that the patient is having very high fevers giving impression of left lower lobe pneumonia. Came across a brand name of a drug used in mouthwash called Advexin. They were talking about oral cancers...but then cross-referenced on http://www.pharma-lexicon.com/ and found (generic Mepron) atovaquone, classified as an anti-infective used in both adults and children who are at risk for PCP with initial doses of 750 mg per 5 mL. Since Hodgkin's lymphoma and bone marrow transplant would put this girl in a severely immunocompromised state, I would bet they are giving her a pretty hefty dose of the stuff. Atovaquone it is.

Thanks for helping me.

Like ...there were lewes....or something.  You are probably right, and I finally found it in stedman's and it says *sternal angle* and that seems to fit the way the doctor used it.  Thanks again.

This client requires headings whether or not dictated, so I wanted to make sure I'm correct.

Anyway, I have always typed it under abdomen, but I went looking to make sure, and I did find it in a sample report with it listed under back.

However, I just found a very good article called "Varney's Midwifery" that says it is part of the abdominal exam.

Thanks!

Subject: That's what I was thinking.

Most of the references I found say that if a patient is unable to consent to surgery, two doctors can sign the consent form on the patient's behalf. I am just not sure if the dictators mean double-doctored or double-documented when they say double doc'd. I do all ops, so it comes up fairly often.

The left wrist is inspected showing there to be a visible soft tissue swollen area of the dorsal wrist closer to the radial aspect of the wrist. It is approximately 3 cm in diameter. Mobile tender to palpation and consistent with the ganglion cyst.

I was thinking a comma should go after diameter and before mobile. (where I have a period) What do you think?

...a couple of lines down he said the patient was circumcised. This guy completely rambles. I really didn't know about hair tourniquets until tonight's dictation. (Now If only I could forget the mental image!) Thanks for taking time to answer--this newbie appreciates it.

I'm hearing a "cis" sound in the middle of the word. He also says it again part way down in the report. He says EG junction is 35 cm from the _______ orifice.

Thanks.

there wasnt any mention of the drug at any other part of the report and the word starts with a K or a C.

But I couldn't find anything that came close to matching what it sounds like she's saying.She has an accent which doesn't help at all.
