Subject: planemetry??seems probable. telemetry seems improbable. SM
From the word parts, I imagine that planemetry is measuring the size of the heart and its chambers by taking "still" echos in various planes, then moving the screen markers to define the maximal up-down dimensions and the maximal left-right dimensions.

I found one paragraph re patients ...sm
Subject: I found one paragraph re patients ...sm
not sure but I found one paragraph thru google about dacron wool........being used on a patient:
Once cooling to -79 C was complete the patient was lifted out of the Silcool bath, the outer, Silcool wetted plastic bag was stripped off and the patient was placed within a polyester cloth bag which was in turn placed inside a standard aluminum neurocan which had been precooled to -90 and packed with dacron
wool. Temperature probes were left externalized to the neurocan for subsequent cooling to -196 C.
I don't really think this is going to help you though but I tried!!

Pain scale in leukemia patients
Subject: Pain scale in leukemia patients
Hi,
Is there a pain scale that is commonly referred to for leukemia patients? I'm doing a clinic note on a patient, and in the PE section, I hear something that sounds like ecot 0 (zero). The first thing that pops into my head is Ficat, but I don't think that's what it would be. I often hear doctors mention the pain scale rating right along with the vital signs, and that's where this is dictated. I'm googling and researching this, but I'm not even sure where to look. Any suggestions?

Is this correct? I was taught it the R was capitalized, but maybe things have changed. My Stedman's says Regular, but I know I read in my company newsletter that it was a small R. I don't want to get a critical error. Guess where I work????
