Thorn test

A putative test of adrenal cortical function; stimulation of a normally functioning adrenal cortex by the adrenocorticotrophic hormone is followed by a reduction in the number of circulating eosinophils and lymphocytes and an increase in the excretion of uric acid. The test lacks sufficient specificity and is rarely used.

if a doctor dictates *1-1/2 months* - that's what I give him/her.

if a doctor dictates *a month and a half* - that's what I give him/her.

so it's not either-or - the other poster's response was incorrect in my opinion.

She has never had a colonoscopy.  Weight is actually stable.  A pelvic and transvaginal ultrasound was also ACRUSTED during her last evaluation.  A pelvic exam raised a concern that her uterus was the top normal size.

However, after the KUB, she was passing stools and the distension seemed to resolve. A s/l rola pogo had been placed as well. TIA!!!

It must be a term for putting pressure on the bladder.  The full sentence is below.

He did check and she had a residual urine.  He taught her how "s/l cruday" her bladder and with putting pressure on her bladder when she urinates she is able to empty to about......

This is a letter concerning your June 21, 2006 correspondence in which you alleged that I tried to admit a patient without a proper **bedical** backup.

I performed surgery on a patient who is 307 pounds who is being treated at Medical University for a variety of medical problems.  She was completely cleared by Medical University for surgery.  I made a decision at that time to have her for 23-hour observation and pain control until the next morning.

anterior mediastinum

Anterior mediastinum, the narrow region between the pericardium and the sternum containing the thymus or its remnants, some lymph nodes and vessels and branches of the internal thoracic artery.

That is probably mosaicism or punctation.

Changes Associated with High Grade SIL

1. Blood Vessel changes (Coarse punctation or mosaicism)
   
2. Abnormal blood vessels
   
3. Erosions
   
4. Dense Acetowhite staining of epithelium

On his hearing test, the patient could not hear frequencies at 1000-2000-4000 with his right ear at 40 decibels.  He could not hear 1000 with his left ear at 40 decibels.  However, during the whisper test, he was able to hear three items in each ear from at least 7 feet away.

I have no idea how to type the 1000 2000 4000.  This is on a physical exam.  Thanks for any help!!

Subject: I would do it like this...

I would do it this way...

CLINICAL IMPRESSION:
1. Fever.
2. Bronchitis.  Rule out a right pneumonia.
3. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
4. Atrial fibrillation.  Rule out arrhythmia.

The reason I do it that way is because way before, we used to line Rule out under let's say Atrial fibrillation, yielding 2 lines.  It used to be done that way back in the early 90s.  Now it is not done that way.  So, I give the impression which would be atrial fibrillation and begin a new sentence....because they have to rule out an arrhythmia.  I don't think it is etched in stone, so either/or would be fine.  *S*

..dyskeratosis in the form of CORE-ON, squarmous dysplasia...

Truvada

Second word is most likely Sustiva.  It is an HIV drug.  Doctor's spelling...well, we know!
