I found both Meyerson and Myerson signs in my Surgical Word Book
Subject: I found both Meyerson and Myerson signs in my Surgical Word Book
According to Google, they seem to both have the same definition.
Myerson's sign is a medical condition where a patient is unable to resist blinking when tapped on the glabella, the area above the nose and between the eyebrows. It is often an early symptom of Parkinson's disease.
Snout Reflex: percuss the upper lip near the midline - pursing or puckering of lips; glabellar reflex (=Meyerson's sign) - percuss on forehead in the middle above eyes: produces continued blinking with each tap. Also seen in Parkinson's. Grasp Reflex - stroke the mid-palm upward to fingers; you may warn the patient not to hold on.
Since, the doc is spelling Meyerson, I would give him that one.
Crazy huh?

Tessier Surgical Word Book, Third Edition which is the newest edition. Methinks your QA person is wrong (and needs to be brought down a peg or two  ). I think some of this QA people get a wee big headed and think they are always right. Doesn't sound like he's/she's bothering to reference it because if she did, she wouldn't be able to find it.

And I was wondering if he may be referring to a dept at hospital for prosthesis fitting, as he later mentions IPOF/IPOP again as a consultation.
I'm thinking that the doc may not have completed his train of thought. He goes from saying the patient has what he thinks is a MRSA infection just above the stump, then he's dictating something else. Previous notes are no help, as they read as a disjointed thought process as well.
Oh well - thanks for your help!

This guy has a thick, possibly Russian, accent.
However, he was evaluated by his urologist, who is following him for prostate problems, and was told that this was not ___ to have some microscopic hematuria.
It sounds like he is saying early, but I am not sure. It has a definite Y sound at the end. Thanks so much!
