Top-10 MT Websites
Subject: Top-10 MT Websites
Hello - I'm trying to collect a top 10 (or maybe even a top 20) list of the most helpful websites for MTs for my office. So far, I have...
www.rxlist.com, www.drugstore.com, www.stedmans.com, www.onelook.com, www.dictionary.com
Basically, I'm looking for a broad range of websites to help with the following categories: Medications, Words, Anatomy/Disease, Dictionaries, and Physician/Healthcare Facility names.
Any help would you can provide will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks! Christy :)

Here is a good website that I use for Lab values:
http://www.mtworld.com/tools_resources/lab_values.html
Here is another website that can help you with abbreviations. You can either put in the abbreviation and it will give you all the options for that abbrevation. Or you can put in the definition and it will show you the correct abbreviation:

Drug Names - Websites???
Subject: Drug Names - Websites???
 I hope you all can help! I am in search of a good website to distinguish drug names. I am looking specifically to be able to distinguish brand names from generic and am interested in which should be capitalized, and which not? Any good sites out there that aren't all lists with all drug names starting in caps even though they shouldn't be?

Subject: gram-negative, lactose-negative rods is correct. I found a couple of interesting websites SM
after doing a google search for gram-negative, lactose-negative rods. Basically testing organisms to see if they ferment lactose (positive) or not (negative).
Also, just FYI, gram-negative is not capitalized.

I would do 60%. I have several doctors that will say 60 (as in ) 6-0. Clarifying the numbers so you don't put 16. They do 50, 5-0 so you don't put 15 because they sound close. It just sounds like sixty-six-zero. Put what you feel is right but I would be from experienc it is 60%

Regarding tonsil and adenoid surgery, sentence is as follows: The table was turned 90 degrees and a shoulder roll and _____ (s/l memorial header?) were placed. A Crowe-Davis mouth gag inserted to retract the patient’s tongue.

I would recommend getting Stedman's Infectious Disease and Organisms book. It has everything (well..pretty much) listed both by genera and species and shows any subspecies.

means after, so post phlebotomy would mean after a phlebotomy. It could be any time after, 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, etc. The O in post is a long sound, not short. It could also be past phlebotomy or, as you say, just a false start.

Per the "acisional" post below.....sm
Subject: Per the "acisional" post below.....sm
With all of my QA's efforts and mine as well, which included asking my fellow MTs on this board, we have found no such word as "acisional".
Ahem, it was brought to my attention, however, that this is indeed the way the doc dictated the word 3 (count 'em three) times, and that I was not mistaken in that respect. (HUH????? Didn't I say that already?? LOL)
Anyway, look for this newest, doctor-made-up-word .....if the dictator says "acisional", that is what he/she means! And, it's probably coming to a new Stedman's Ortho/Rehab Words publication in your area sooooonnnnnnnn.........
Just a silly update, but I do like to share.
