I respect your link, but I can find many words spelled incorrectly on the 'net. One must go with trusted sources.

Subject: Use reference material...

....as one of the "stupid" QA people, let me tell you that if you have reference material from which you are quoting, you do not have to worry about being wrong.  Stedman's Medical & Surgical Equipment book has Endocatch, and that's what I use.  Any company who would make up their own version, I wouldn't work for.

Surgery reference material
Subject: Surgery reference material

Let me start by saying, THANKS!  I love this sight. You guys help me so much.  I am an MT in training, and little over half-way through my course.  I have really been struggling with operative reports.  Between the garggling and mumbling of the doctor's dicactation and all the new surgical instruments and drug references, I have at least 50 terms throughout a 5 minute document that I have researched for the past 5 days, spending more hours than I can count, trying to figure out these terms.  What I want to know is, does anyone know of a good website, or anything that lists surgical instruments and/or drugs, such as anesthesias, by branch of medicine? (I am on ophthalmology surgeries right now, ack!).  I am learning a lot through this process.  I just seem to be stuck right now.  Thanks!
