? 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!

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.

I know we need to defer to the BOS, which is MQ's basic style, so I put 3. Funny how it really didn't occur to me until today, seeing it as "3" in ASR.
Thanks.

and google is NOT the authority on when to use which word. You can find errors all over the internet and I don't consider google a research tool unless it takes me to a manufacturer web site so I can find a copyrighted spelling.
A good dictionary and solid reference materials are needed. Additionally, the OP did not say the client wanted it one way or another so your bringing that into the equation makes you look as though you are trying to justify what you do, and I really do not care what you do. You are only trying to deflect the direction of the discussion to one in which you _win_ and you try to make me _lose_. The people here who lose are the ones who still don't know the CORRECT usage of the 2 words.
I stand my ground. The OP still does not know definitively how to use these 2 words based on this thread. And you can huff and puff and try to blow my house down but you still don't _win_.

Retzius is hard to find because it refers you all over the place, but appears to be some kind of cell column and has something to do with the cochlea. It's quite a stretch from what it sounds like--"the trex-i-vuss or drex-i-vuss

a doc say "derbis" for "debris" and another say "aspirational pneumonia" instead of "aspiration pneumonia," but that does not make the docs correct. WE must know the difference which is the reason WE need mentoring for years after going to school and need proper references for our field, not Google.
You listed polynephritis Google references which are incorrect. Don't understand your followup.

From the time I took medical terminology, I always thought of:
dysphasia=difficulty speaking because of the "s" instead of "g", as in "speech".
dysphagia=difficulty swallowing because of the "g" instead of "s", as in "laryngeal".
Probably sounds weird, but keeps me from having to look it up!
