feel stupid asking this but seated or seeded? Arthroscopic knee surgery
Subject: feel stupid asking this but seated or seeded? Arthroscopic knee surgery

There was a larger grade 3 lesion on the inferior portion of the patella as it seated or seeded? in the trochlear groove at about 45 degrees of flexion. I am thinking seated because it is sitting in the groove? Would this be correct or am I totally wrong here.


not stupid
Subject: not stupid

Don't worry about it, have had many days like that, and I have been doing this 30+ years.   Yesterday I could not get anything right.  Happens to us all, and it does make sense later.  I have looked at a lot of these word-help emails, and there are several that I had no clue on but always good to learn new things even at my old age.

2nd day and feeling very stupid
Subject: 2nd day and feeling very stupid

I'm sorry ahead of time. Yesterday was awful and today only seems worse :( This is probably so obvious but because I am getting anxious, I can not hear anything now! The doctor says "... coughing, which initially was thought to be nonproductive but now (s/l livid) some productive sputum." Any help would be so greatly appreciated, and please don't laugh too hard! I may hear and get my feelings hurt. LOL

AAA repair. Please see message for stupid sentence!
Subject: AAA repair. Please see message for stupid sentence!

Endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm with Talent endovascular graft with a "36 20 155" left main body and a "14 20 90 right limb with a P 50 10" Palmaz stent placed across the aortic seal zone.


Not sure how to type the number sequences:


He dictates "36 20 155"    and


"14 20 90" right limb with a "P 50 10"


I have no idea if he means 36 x 20 x 155 or what!


Thanks!

Since no QA, just do what you feel
Subject: Since no QA, just do what you feel

looks right and then they will let you know if it is right or wrong.

I would probably separate each by stating the problem is blah, blah, blah then paragraph the examination is blah, blah, etc.

I would not capitalize headings since they are office notes.

Make each problem standout somehow.

If they have no samples for you, then do it and let them get back to you.

Good Luck
Thanks so much. I feel much better about this now.

Wow!! Feel sorry for you.
Subject: Wow!! Feel sorry for you.

No one from QA has EVER treated me that way. I have had a few less than desirables, but this one is shocking.

I can stand for the fact that people who have diabetes do not necessarily have hypertension. My father has diabetes and has had two MIs and does not have nor has he been treated for hypertension ever.

Plus, I have done QA and yeah, once in awhile a sound alike may seem way off to you because you may know the dictator so well, BUT I have never had anything come across that was "way off". I have always listened a couple of times to try to figure the word out before flagging it as I am sure 99% of us MTs do. Frankly, I would try to speak to her supervisor in the company if you have that option because if she is treating people that way, the company will lose their good MTs. I left a company of a nasty QA manager (apparently not this bad). I would NOT put up with that. It is abusive pure and simple

This is an ESL. I think she has said this before, but I cannot get a grip on it this time.

She was bleeding so much that she called 911 and the patient was taken to the ER. The ER controlled the bleeding and put a plastic **salizine** tape and sent her to see PCP today. According to her, she is not in pain at all but she was afraid when she took off the dressing it would bleed. Thanks!

Just trying to help, didn't claim to be perfect.  cushingoid/Cushing disease, effect, phenomenon, pituitary basophilism, response, suture, syndrome, etc. according to Stedman's.  Just call me "you'd be wrong" then from now on.  That won't bother me a bit.  I've got broad shoulders!  LOL    Hope you have a nice day!

Subject: OB/GYN help. I feel like I should know this, but I can't hear it.

Because of oligomenorrhea, she did start birth control pills and stopped them approximately 1 year ago.  At first she had menstrual cycles every 4-6 weeks, but about the last 6 months or so she has been having 2 periods a month.  She brings a schedule with her that shows that she had s/l promera or proberus from 06/07/06 to 06/14/06.  her times of bleeding were 06/24/06, 07/07/06, 07/25/06, and 08/06/06, and she bleeds about 3-7 days each time.  She has no moliminal symptoms and no evidence of ovulatory symptoms.
