I guess the vac part is supposed to be evacuated. I haven't seen this slang typed in a report before, just heard it said. I don't think I'm comfy using the slang version. I'll check into the real term. Thanks for helping.

L5 compression fracture; C5-6 herniated nucleus puposus. I have never used fifth lumbar or lumbar five. Most docs I have had always dictate as L5 or C5-6 and also some do C-spine or L-spine. easier for them, I guess, as well as whoever reads the report.

You know, I think I will just blank it.. (sm if you want!:)
Subject: You know, I think I will just blank it.. (sm if you want!:)

This doc is famous for saying the wrong thing because he dictates while surfing the net.  Actiq is something prescribed in that clinic all the time, and he always mispronounces it "Ak-tik" rather than "Ak-teek" as it should be pronounced, so I bet he said that while thinking something else.  I know that's not right, so I will just leave it blank.  I really wish this guy would pay attention, though! 


(I don't know how many times I have been transcribing and he's hemming and hawing and I hear clicking in the background and then hear, "Hello!  You've got mail!" and I think to myself... "This guy is a neurosurgeon... And he has AOL? Hello?" Ha ha!)


Thanks for trying to help, all! I appreciate your time!

Subject: i'm going to blank it

I just can't figure it out.  Each response is a great one but it's just not what he's saying--and I know what he's saying isn't correct!


"Extremities revealed no cyanosis or edema, there are slightly decreased peripheral pulses and dorsalis pedis.  There is good capillary refill and _______ to cultures over both lower extremities.  The patient stayed in the hospital for 16 days."


I hate it when I can't figure out a word!  Again, thanks for the responses, this is a great group!
