You might want to find a list of osteoporosis medications (as that is one of the conditions you mentioned) and see if one of them has a generic name that sounds like your s/l. When you're a new MT, you need to do a lot of detective work.

It sounds exactly like I wrote it, but doctors have been known to create their own words and ways of phrasing sentences. It is just confusing for some of us new MT's. :-( Thanks so much for your help.

Suture Selection Criteria




Follow these steps to determine the ideal suture for your procedure.






"

Step 1

"
Know the Sutures in the Novartis-Ethicon Family

"





"

Step 2

"
Know Your Tissue Healing Rate

"





"

Step 3

"
Select the Correct Tensile Strength for the Tissue

"





"

Step 4

"
Choose the Correct Needle







TAPER NEEDLES
 



  • Used in easily penetrated tissues such as peritoneum, abdominal viscera, subcutaneous layers, etc.
  • Minimizes tissue "cut-out". Smallest possible hole in tissue is created with minimal tissue cutting.
  • Also ideal for closing hollow organs to prevent damage.

REVERSE CUTTING NEEDLES



  • Used in tough, difficult to penetrate tissues such as skin, fascia, ligament, etc.
  • Less tissue "cut-out" than standard cutting needles.

NWMNMT:Good grief, good grief, good grief..If this is the case, the doctor should also explain
Subject: NWMNMT:Good grief, good grief, good grief..If this is the case, the doctor should also explain

the meaning in an ADDENDUM.
How do you know what the doctor meant? GOOD GRIEF, are you the know-it-all (hyphens must be put here, as it is used as a noun!) on this board? Get over yourself!

Who understands what it means without an explanation?
The MOST obvious is apparently like I understood it:
5 packs in 1 year.

Maybe the doctor really meant this, 5 packs per year, so essentially a nonsmoker.

GOOD GRIEF, get over yourself!

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.
