when you say "extremely conservative"
Subject: when you say "extremely conservative"

I have to assume you are referring to other aspects/forums - what does that have to do with the fact that she knows her stuff when it comes to transcription and has helped a great deal of MTs on this board - including myself.  I think that's a rather strange comment to make with respect to this "word help" board.  You seem to know your stuff, too, and I respect you for that.  I don't concern myself with anything other than the fact that you can contribute in a positive way to the MTs who need assistance here.
conservative treatment
Subject: conservative treatment

This patient has osteoarhritis of her right knee.


The patient is a 61-year-old female with a long history of right knee pain.  She pursued conservative treatment <s/l al-er-d-es> without significant relief.  She proceeded with a right total knee arthroplasty.


I can't for the life of me think of what this could be. I thought maybe it was just suppose to be "conservative treatment without significant reflief" but it sounds likes she's saying something there, but I can't figure it out.

disposition of care versus deposition of care
Subject: disposition of care versus deposition of care

Talking about a patient's discharge planning.  I have always typed this disposition of care but my new co-workers type deposition.  which is correct?  thanks for help in advance.
they should care
Subject: they should care

well, who should care?  The MT him or herself.  This can be a crutch IMO.  And, no, my opinion doesn't amount to a pile o' beans in the grand scheme of things.  Maybe my post should have been more helpful, than critical, and should have asked posters if they know how to search.  I've gotten really good at it and can find just about anything really.  For instance, someone just recently posted ligament of Treitz question.  All I did was google, ligament of *.  Bingo! 


Anyway, to the person who said I should just use the back button, pfft.

2 types of anesthesia care -- see msg.
Subject: 2 types of anesthesia care -- see msg.

Local and MAC (monitored anesthesia care) are 2 types of anesthesia, so probably "Local/MAC" would be best. However, I don't think I have ever been dinged on QA for typing "Local MAC" with a space.

Here is a link to an article on anesthesia types.

Have a great day.
