This dictator is a notorious word-shortener-upper. I should have figured it out myself, especially where it went in the report. Thanks so much!

Is Xanax 5 mg b.i.d. a customary dose of this?
Subject: Is Xanax 5 mg b.i.d. a customary dose of this?
Just wondering, I am used to transcribing 0.5 mg or 1 mg, 2 mg at the most but I have a resident saying 5 mg b.i.d. I'm not a doctor so I don't want to pretend I know better, but would you flag this to be sure it was 5 and not 0.5 if you were me? Maybe they do prescribe as high as 5 mg and just because I have never typed that high of a dose doesn't mean anything, but I always worry, same as when they dictate mg for something that I'm used to typing mcg. Any opinions?
s/l cynex, definately not Xanax

dictator said: she denied initially how her urine became positive for amphetamines and stated that she does not know how that happened. She later revealed in a core occuring group that she was taking s/l cy-nex or cinex and that she knew that meth had been placed in the Cinex bottle. TIA

newbieD's answer. Using "neuroforamen" is a very common mistake. This is a made-up word. The correct way to transcribe it is "neural foramen."

On my account I can do VERY light editing for grammar, but that's about it. As the previous poster says, if you are on a verbatim account, you should type as dictated even if it's wrong...& if you are uncomfortable with this, leave a blank.

that diabetics with hypertension are the only ones who are ever hospitalized! Having that combination put a person at a higher risk for being hospitalized with complications, of course.
You don't have the credentials to make blanket statements, because just one diabetic person here with normal BP makes you WRONG. And you already have such a response.

allowed to do. However, at one of the first hospitals I worked for (back in the early 80s) for example, we had a doctor who was constantly using abbreviations which we were not allowed to do in diagnosis. I will NEVER forget this. His diagnosis was "P.M.S.O.B." The transcriptionist, of course, changed this in the diagnosis to read "Shortness of breath at night." He flew off the handle - this abbreviation meant "poor, miserable, son of a B****" and that is what he wanted in the chart. It was referred to the Hospital Director who told our department manager that even though this was definitely not correct, he dictated it and wanted it there and there was not much we could do about it if we wanted to keep our jobs. This is a lesson that taught me never to second guess a physician. Granted this was not at all politically correct (we didn't have that term back then), but that is what he wanted, so I don't change anything in that vein - I may question it and flag it for the higher ups, but I don't change it.

Subject: tis true but sad - blanket statements...sm
The poster should not make such blanket statements. I totally agree with you.
Also, the ones who went through therapies (psychological, primal, gestalt, rolfing, et al, ad nauseum) NEVER get high blood pressure, I promise you that!!!! They have learned how to *deal* and not internalize everything in life.
The poster, instead of giving free, unsolicited, generalized, and unprofessional advice (and as a probable nonmedical person, rather a paraprofessional one - one who works besides and along side the professionals, such as ourselves, MTs and coders) should, instead, I suggest, read Dr. Arthur Janov's book The Primal Scream from the 70s which would help anyone who struggles (and since we ALL struggle in the life, a good book for all!!). That book changed my life 30+ years ago, and if I could change - I think ANYBODY could. *lol*
I believe if one *gets it all out*, there would be no high blood pressure, and there's my free, unsolicited, generalized advice.

It's true that Dorland's defines that way, but
Subject: It's true that Dorland's defines that way, but
that doesn't mean the surgical excision of a lymph or any blood vessel could not correctly be referred to as a vasectomy. It may not be common, and it may not be the textbook definition, but the term does not have to exclusively apply to the vas deferens. If you were going to refer to the surgical excision of a lymphatic or other general vessel in a single word, what word would you use? Anyway, I'm not arguing whether or not the dictation was accurate, I'm just saying if that is what was truly said and context did not support a more general use of the term, then the real boob is the physician who dictated it, and if that is what he/she said, and it is clear that is what was said, then I would send it through as well and let the physician confront his/her own potential error in proofing the report and correct it then if it truly needs to be corrected. Patient safety is not involved in this case, so if it is an error and the physician does not take the time to do their job and proof read the report and correct it, then the egg is on their face, which is where it belongs anyway.
