Patient has ear pain. Has had myringotomy tubes placed in the past.
The right TM was a little dull, with loss of landmarks and either a fluid s/l wave or some fluid related to the eardrum. There was no evidence of a myringotomy tube in the ear canal.
Fluid level? Does that work in this regard? Thanks.

PET SCAN 03/08/08: Reveals intense hypermetabolism corresponding to the mass in the left mid lung field posteriorly, abutting in the left major fizure predominantly in the superior segment of the left lower lobe. This same type of metabolism corresponding to the right middle lobe pulmonary nodule previously noted activity in the lower neck anteriorly (06/28/06) has since resolved.

I'm pretty much clueless with regular clinic work. I basically went from school to typing ortho, so there's a lot of things I learned in school that I've never applied, and this is one of them.
At any rate, I learned it was mmHg, but with the doc dictating just mm, it threw me a little bit and I was wondering if I should type it as mm or mmHg, or does it matter...
Sorry I was so vague in my question. I typed it out fast, as the phone was ringing.
Thanks for your reply. :)

tele?? plse see msg....
Subject: tele?? plse see msg....
Doc dictates: she had an arrhythmia that led to problems with her blood pressure, which led to problems with her mental status, which led to pulmonary problems, which led to being intubated and she was in the ICU for about a week, four of those days intubated. She was then in tele for another week after that.
Would it be telemetry? This is in a letter and I would rather use the whole form of the word. TIA

a tough one having to do with radioisotope...plse sm.
Subject: a tough one having to do with radioisotope...plse sm.
The patient is a candidate for a sentinel node biopsy based on the intermediate thickness melanoma. Despite the negative lymphscintogram, it is certainly reasonable on the day of surgery for her melanoma excision to inject ? radioisotope at the primary site and with the handheld gamma counter, we may still be fortunate enough to identify a sentinel node that we can biopsy.
He kind of mumbles the type of radioisotope to be injected and if anyone has any ideas, I can see if they match up to what he is "trying" to say! Thanks so much.
s/l curl defect? Plse see msg..
Subject: s/l curl defect? Plse see msg..
It appears the patient's wrap is intact but that the hiatal repair has come undone so the wrap has slipped up into her chest. Essentially there are only two things you can do about this; one is to do nothing and live with it and the other is operate, repair the curl defect and put the stomach back in the abdomen where it belongs.
Is curl defect correct? TIA

The word "chlamydia" is the genus and is only capitalized if it is followed by the name of the family. This per Dorland's Medical Dictionary. If the word "chlamydia" is not followed by the family name, the word is not capitalized.

I do not mind helping people with their questions, but would appreciate if you could give a little more context when asking. Perhaps a sentence or two containing the s/l or word in question or some sort of reference to what type report, body area, etc., would be welcome. It would greatly help me to help you.

The first thing you should learn is HOW to ask a question. You can't just jump in with one word or half a phrase or a sound-like and cry for help. You need to give some example of what you are looking for. People on this board do not mind helping you or they would not be here, but a little more information on your part would help us help you. Medical transcription is more than just one word or half a phrase or a sound-like and most times it is necessary to give some indication of what is wrong with the patient or a diagnosis in order to get an answer.

Dorland's Medical Dictionary:
Pexis:
1. Fixation of matter by a tissue.
2. Surgical fixation, usually by suture.
Therefore pexed would be past tense, as in was pexed (or fixed).

This is a pulmonary account. It sounds like she needed to use the "VAS??" every two hours.
Then again under plan "increase use of vest/VAS??" It definitely is related to pulmonary.

O’Leary uterine artery ligation
. This has been used in cases of bleeding during Caesarean sections (n=265 over 30 years (27)). Sutures including 2-3 cm of myometrium are placed 2-3 cm below the uterine incision.
The uterus is grasped by the assistant and elevated upwards and to the opposite side of the uterine artery which will be ligated to expose the vessels coarse through the broad ligament.
- A large atraumatic needle with no. 1 chromic cutgut, O-vicryl or O-Dexon is passed through and into the myometrium from anterior to posterior 2-3 cm medial to the uterine vessels.
- The needle is brought forward through avascular area in the broad ligament lateral to the uterine artery and vein. The suture is tied anteriorly.
- In case of caesarean section, the sutures are placed 2-3 cm below the level of uterine incision under the reflected peritoneal flap which should be displaced downwards with the bladder to avoid ligation of the ureters.
- If caesarean section was not done, peritoneal incision is not indicated and bladder can be simply pushed downwards.
- Uterine artery ligation is haemostatic by reducing the pulse pressure to the uterus as 90% of its blood supply is from the uterine vessels.
- Collateral circulation and recanalization of the uterine vessels will be established within 6-8 weeks.
It has a success rate of 95%
