It does reveal maxillary sinus mucopurulence and I cultured this area of yellow drainage and submitted it for aerobic and anaerobic and fungal cultures. I then suctioned the area with _Venalia _ suction under endoscopic guidance and suctioned all debris from the nose and maxillary sinus.


Thanks for helping.  I've tried Stedman's and google and can't seem to locate it!

name of catheter
Subject: name of catheter

I have an ESL doing an OB/GYN procedure (a hysteroscopy, to be more specific) and she inserts a catheter into the bladder to drain it.  I think she's saying red_____catheter, and the first thing that comes to my mind is 'red Robinson' or maybe even 'red rubber.'  I looked at the last report that I left this blank in, and the QA put in red Robinul catheter.  I do not believe there is such a thing.  Maybe she just attempted to use one of her shortcuts, and the wrong one filled in without her realizing it, or she was sleep typing.  Who knows!  Robinul is a med, and there is no such catheter, is there?  I sure can't document one in my reference books or with Google searches.

Subject: name of catheter

I agree, I've heard red rubber catheter many times too.  I was just going back and listening to the blanks to see if I could figure any of them out on a second pass, and it definitely does sound like Robinul or a word ending in that type of sound, but she's getting a blank from me on this one.  Maybe a different QA will proof it, and I can see what it really should be.


Thank you all!


Maybe PAC catheter??...
Subject: Maybe PAC catheter??...

as in abbreviated port-a-cath?? Not sure on that one.  Then--"catheter was sutured using a Witzel tunnel suture to prevent rotation or volvulus" (twisting of the bowel).  Would make sense with Witzer tunnel procedure and if the cath site is in the abdomen (especially for chemotherapy).
