They yawn, spit, sputter, spew, mumble, eat, while they're dictating! Wake up guys! You're talking to a PERSON!
I know. I hate when they do this.

They always make up their own words so I probably will give him what he said and let them figure it out. LOL

sometimes you just have to tell yourself, "if it doesn't change the sentence/meaning, don't worry about it.

only psych reference book I had. It was the old Stedman's one that had psych and neuro mixed together. HATED that book, LOL.
Not only is psych boring, but a lot of it is actually drug rehab, and those patients' problems are 95% self-inflicted out of pure foolishness.

T-wave inversions in V4 through V6, I and aVL
my question is about the V6, is it I or 1? ASR had typed V6-1.
I get confused with the Roman vs Arabic in cardiology. Anybody have a good reference website? TIA!!!!

After thinking it over I came to teh decision tht I would say this is the right way..
'The patient is a 40-week, appropriate for gestational age, female infant.'
This is the version that makes most sense.

Subject: hate to disappoint you but it was moi, Beavus
as no one else here seems to know how to do that.
I also wanted to see what would happen once posted, and you helped underscore my point. We can be good MTs or we can continue to be mediocre and then need to shut up about work going offshore. It is one thing to know when to use disc and when to use disk and another to give the client what they want, BUT to adopt an attitude of not knowing when it is proper to use these words, we diminished our value.
Try looking up articular d. in Stedman's Dictionary and see which d. it instructs you to use. If you use disc for ortho, you might be using the wrong one.
Again, give the client what it wants BUT please know the difference and when people ask questions here, do not enable them. Educate them. Know how to be a proper MT, even if your client asks you to transcribe improperly.

Tessio Catheter is that correct?
I hate Yellofin stirrups!
Subject: I hate Yellofin stirrups!
No matter how I transcribe it, QA feels it is incorrect, but Allen Medical shows Yellofin Elite Stirrups and has a Yellowfin stirrup O/R table for ordering and prices. I'd been taught long ago that this was a commonly misunderstood term and often dictated incorrectly by doctors and that the correct term was Yellofins -- no matter how they said it. This term is documented on another reputable MT site. It was so much easier when I felt that was the correct term. Arghhhh!
Thanks for letting me vent!

In reference to urethrovesical junction, it was not patchulous.
urethrovesical junction was neither hypermobile, patchulose, nor fibrotic...
Why can I never find patchulous? TIA.

but before the signature. Makes it easier. We typed our reports on sticky paper and that way it did not get separated from the main report etc. But I did not do BOS. nm

I have searched MTStars and can't find my answer. I have posted this question before and do not get a reply. I promise this will be my last attempt to find this answer. I know how to use follow up and follow-up, BUT many people are using followup per BOS. I can't find followup as a word in any dictionary. Can someone please tell me where this is found BESIDES BOS? Thanks in advance. We are possibly putting in a quality check and I want to make sure I have it correct before then. Thank you!

maybe my brain's just too frozen to wing it.
would it be gellish, gel-ish ??? he's talking about the consistency of myelomeningocele tissue. i'd rather go with gel-like, but with verbatim i don't feel comfortable ad libbing...

Next, a Bard 20-cm, 6-French, double-pigtail ureteral stent was passed over the wire and up into the right kidney.
Are my hyphens correct? Do I really need that many hyphens? My QA has been pinging me on hyphens even sent me a photocopied excerpt from the BOS "for my information."

hate to beat a dead horse on ileal conduit
Subject: hate to beat a dead horse on ileal conduit
Does anyone have a GI/GU book that lists ileoconduit? My QA does not like to be proved wrong. She took a large deduction for my putting ileal conduit. I am sending a QA review to have it looked at again, but she always comes up with a reference book from somewhere that has her word listed, so I'm just trying to save myself all the headache of submitting a QA review to find out it is listed somewhere ileoconduit.

sure did s/l pan though! I didn't think pan CT made any sense and couldn't find a reference, but I wanted to be sure.
Thanks so much, I really appreciate the help!

Subject: OHH yeah that does help. She did say
pt is scheduled for a "colectomy takedown and reanastomosis" I guess I'll leave it as she says it. I thought maybe she could have been using the wrong term and meant "colostomy takedown" or it could have been "colectomy, takedown, and reanastomosis" like the pt was going to have another colectomy.
Thanks so much for the help! And just in time, too, I'm just about to send in the report. Much appreciated!

Yeah. I know. 21 of the 25 doctors I routinely transcribe are ESL. It's challenging, to say the least. I was just hoping that someone would recognize the sounds. (I know that sometimes I can, even when reading what someone else heard.)
I blanked it. Will report back if anyone cares.

I know how that is. It's weird that some docs expect you to go against common rules. The BOS says use of actual numbers should be used exclusively but at times to use your own judgement. But, even common English rules say not to spell out numbers above 10. Now, capitalizing generic medicines is just plain crazy. But you do what they ask, no matter how ignorant. :-) Been there, done that.
