I'll try to help you, but...

I agree with the other poster.  I mean this in the nicest way possible, so please don't take this wrong.  A little research could have answered these for you.  Here goes anyway...Astelin nasal spray, Scalpacin, ranitidine (you had this one right, googling it would have confirmed it), Feldene, bupropion hydrochloride, and Temovate (this one may not be what you need, google for more info).


If you don't have drug reference books, Quick Look Drug Book is a great book.  Also, you can go to www.fda.gov and then click on drugs, and it will take you to the drugs@fda site, which is great because you can enter just 3 letters of the word.  Also, if you know what the drug is used to treat, type in that condition in google, and you can often find several drugs listed for that condition.  For example, "stop smoking medications" will pull up bupropion hydrochloride.


Good luck!

I type them, even though they come up on spell check.  I have  never had a report back with any of those types of words corrected.  If the doc says it, I type it and the docs seem to do that a lot these days.

I was trained to do acute care, but spent 7 yrs doing clinic work. It IS a different ball game. I am frequently surprised by what I remember of my coursework and how often I use it, which is actually quite a lot. Then again, most of what I know is through a lot of time and hard work in this profession.

I took a job earlier that year on an account with 80% ESLs. This was the last major challenge I had waiting for me in this career (heavy ESLs are not everyone's cup of tea). I can do the most difficult and intricate of OP notes, but I wanted to continue to learn and grow. The ESL doctors have taught me a lot and sharpened my ear.

That is the thing about this business. There are many different types of work and many different ways in which it gets accomplished. Some of us have excellent ears and ESLs are fun for us. Some of us need the same set of doctors day in and day out, whereas others of us would be bored stiff with this. Some like acute care, some like clinics and some like both.

The knowledge comes over time. If you are as fortunate as I have been and have access to several excellent, accomplished and fast-answering MTs, you learn more and you learn it more quickly. People like MT50 are invaluable...to me too!

I looked up Allen-Masters syndrome, and it seems to fit the preoperative diagnosis of pelvic pain. He clearly says Masterson, though, so I'm afraid he'll get a blank for that part.
I'll look that up. Thanks :)
Subject: I'll look that up. Thanks :)

I was searching meds that started with et or at as well.  I thought I heard a vowel before the t but could not be sure he was saying  "a" then the name of the med or if the med started with a vowel.  This doc likes to ramble and add lots of a's, um's and and's.


Thanks for your help :)

Turns out that the patient is having very high fevers giving impression of left lower lobe pneumonia. Came across a brand name of a drug used in mouthwash called Advexin. They were talking about oral cancers...but then cross-referenced on http://www.pharma-lexicon.com/ and found (generic Mepron) atovaquone, classified as an anti-infective used in both adults and children who are at risk for PCP with initial doses of 750 mg per 5 mL. Since Hodgkin's lymphoma and bone marrow transplant would put this girl in a severely immunocompromised state, I would bet they are giving her a pretty hefty dose of the stuff. Atovaquone it is.

Thanks for helping me.

Like ...there were lewes....or something.  You are probably right, and I finally found it in stedman's and it says *sternal angle* and that seems to fit the way the doctor used it.  Thanks again.

but I have this doc all the time and she's never dictated time like that before, so I just wasn't sure.  Thanks to all who replied.
