I agree that the only test

In Reply to: what type of lab test shows no air in the rectum? - jackie

Subject: I agree that the only test

that would show whether there was air in the rectum would be an x-ray. I'm not sure a barium enema is the only one that would show it though. I'm not currently doing radiology.

It is a pressure test, but the doctor would hold the distal or proximal phalanx in the performance of that test while compressing the wrist and waiting for numbness to occur. I would like to hear the rest of your sentence before saying for sure what you are hearing is Phalen's.

As long as a testee is allowed to use reference material, etc. why should they not ask a question here? I personally research all of my own questions, but I do help out those that ask on this site, as well, if I know the answer. Besides, who made the above poster the "tester police" anyway? I saw no complaint from the administrator concerning multiple posts for a similar question.

He (or she, can't tell!) is saying peri J-tube abscess, which I am taking to mean there is an abscess in or around the J-tube insertion site, but peri-J-tube looks terrible and can't find periabscess or peri-abscess to reword the sentence.

some people quote from this thing like it is the Bible or something, and it just is not. There are A LOT of doctors out there who do not adhere by the BOS and prefer their own guidelines. It does not make them wrong. It is just a matter of preference, more than anything. What's the AAMT gonna do, slap your hand if you don't use their guidelines?? shheesh. what a rip!

it's either "skull base structures" or even more likely "skull and bony structures".   I have never seen "scobi" in my years either, but see how it can be easily misunderstood as that for one the phrases above with a fast dictator.
