partially occluded s/l eep duct
Subject: partially occluded s/l eep duct
I need help with this part on a not so great recording. The doctor says "At the bronchus intermedius is a partially occluded [s/l eep] duct and [s/l polyp or polished] white pale tissue which [bled (I think)] easily." Can anyone shed any light? Thanks.
but I believe occluded is incorrect, should that be excluded??

a few hints for you - when doing the objective
Subject: a few hints for you - when doing the objective
findings, when doc says, for instance, "In general, the patient is..." you are putting that under the "general" subheading, so you don't need to repeat the "in general" part - meaning it would just be GENERAL: The patient is....
same with the skin exam that you have there - if doc is saying "skin is warm and dry," and you are putting it under the "skin" subheading, it should just be "SKIN: Warm and dry" ...and so on.
also, in the HEENT section, it should be "sclerae" and "conjunctivae" - doc is referring to the plural form here.
Does that make sense? This is the way it's usually done, but you'll need to follow the instructions you've been given, of course.

Twenty-five years ago, SOAP format was still the in-thing, but doctors slowly trended away from it, probably due to medical transcription and formats changing over time. They are easy to do though.

Subject: Speaking of ears clogged with cerumen, are there
any ENT MTs who know if there is another product, other than Debrox, or Cerumenix (which was by RX only, but discontinued) to remove chronic earwax, other than going to the ENT to have them irrigated and removed with a curette?
I can't seem to find any drug on the market; prescription or otherwise, other than those mentioned above, which were of no benefit.
Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
