This is one of those like harmonic scalpel. There are several different manufacturers of a "hemovac," but only Bard (I believe) has it trademarked. So, what I do, is I only capitalize it if the manufacturer name preceeds it in the dictation. Anyone out there who may have a definitive answer, please share! Thanks!

Someone please help me understand . . .
Subject: Someone please help me understand . . .
Will someone please help me understand why there are those who insist on posting sarcastic comments to those who ask questions? If it is such a bother to them, why do they even visit the word help board? Obviously, their intention is to be rude to someone else . . . displaced anger maybe?  or perhaps they want to make themselves feel superior (self esteem problems)?
I do not understand either
Subject: I do not understand either
I do not come onto this board much anymore because of those who always have to attack.
I came onto the word board last week and someone just had to post to correct my spelling. I did not feel that was necessary but these type of people just have that need to feel superior than others and they always have to be right.
I feel sorry for these people who feel the need to be rude and sarcastic. They must just be very unhappy people and get pleasure out of knocking others down.
This is my opinion and I am sure I will get that sarcastic, rude person making a comment about my opinion.

QA would know the doctor meant the trade name rather than the generic name, since they both sound exactly alike!! Whenever I hear that drug, I always type gentamicin, so I guess your QA person would bust me too. Unless the doctor specifically said it was the brand name, I don't know how she can knock you for using the generic!

There is no such medical phrase as the one you are hearing. Therefore, it must be something else. If you can't hear diabetes mellitus, or anything else, you must leave a blank.

Hi, Newbie!
Guess they haven't taught you about homonyms yet. Sight, site, and cite are a good example of them. The correct one is site (location).
Also try ophthalmology specialty book, Surgical Word Book, and whatever hospital you're working for does have a list of the instruments used. I used to call Sterile Supply directly (in a former lifetime when we worked in hospitals) and then check their spelling.
Good luck.

I understand your frustration! sm
Subject: I understand your frustration! sm
I have posted on these boards several times, only asking questions, and have gotten some crazy, rude, ugly, nasty, idiotic, etc., responses. When people respond and make you out to be an idiot, just because you asked a simple question, THEY are the ones who really look like the idiot!! I see people criticize others for the least little thing, like in your instance. They will post a response just to let someone know they misspelled a simple word, when it has nothing at all to do with the question or comment. They must have a lot of time on their hands, is all I can say!!!
BTW, I like to vent every once in a while, too!
