s/l "en-THEE-sis" of the infraspinatus
Subject: s/l "en-THEE-sis" of the infraspinatus

Trigger point along the "enTHEEsis" of the infraspinatus.


Emphysis?? 


I have looked on the web at sites that describe and show where trigger points are and how to test them, but have yet to come on a word that looks like it could be that.


I am new to this account so forgive me if this is a common term in pain management.


Help?  Thanks!

I have been transcribing over 10 years and am thinking of applying for QA.  Anybody have any similar experience and suggestions/comments on their experiences?  I work for MQ and get paid by the line -- have no idea how they pay their QA - is it by the report, hour or ??  Thanks so much!
or perhaps "W" position.
Subject: or perhaps "W" position.

I know that does not start with a P but that is usually what they say to avoid, the W position where they sit with knees folded back and feet to the sides. And they tell them to sit in the "indian" position to correct it.

Hi, thanks, that was one of my sounds like that I added to my comments when I sent it in. I guess they call the surgical table the "bed" now, maybe? I still think it is the same as reverse Trendelenburg (from the olden days when I worked in an OR), but I was not there now, right? Thanks and when I find out I'll let you know. Sometimes I feel so old and deaf! (But then again he was not the best "enunciator" on the block either).
