Subject: I thought it would be some type of cement, but he's is saying "Prodance" pretty clear, I just

can't document that anywhere. It seems to be a packing of some sort as the doc stated "we packed the wound and sutured the soft tissues over this impregnated with the antibiotics"... with whatever this "Prodance" thing is. I did try researching all types of antibiotic-impregnated cements, but no luck there either.

i've never really looked it up, but the docs say it so often i give it to them.  my guess is that edema would create a gas in the soft tissues.  or, they say something thing interosseous gas ---  just my guess, but it's frequently dictated on my radiology reports.

It usually takes me twice the time to transcribe the work.  If the doc is easy and you can go right from one template/document to the next, it should only take you like 4 hours at the most.  10-12 hours is an awful long time.  What kind of interruptions are you getting.
